Well, beta for the _next_ release is already branched; it would be the one after that, at the earliest.

1.8-beta has branched, yes, but if it stabilizes this cycle it would make it into 1.9-beta (which would progress to 1.9-stable the week after OSCON), and our beta releases have proven themselves stable enough that I'm perfectly happy to use them in tutorials.

I would be surprised if ? were stabilized in the next 6 weeks after how contentious the RFC was.

Yes, I expect it to move more slowly than an immediate stabilization as well.

Alas, you're probably right. :) A man can dream!
