The UDAs issue was completely different, there were no betas including
UDAs. People using it were just using a development snapshot.

This is pretty much how it is now. Only minor regressions can be found
in a beta/rc usually. There are no changes in behaviour or new features.

All fathers are intimidating. They're intimidating because they are
fathers. Once a man has children, for the rest of his life, his
attitude is, "To hell with the world, I can make my own people. I'll eat
whatever I want. I'll wear whatever I want, and I'll create whoever
I want."
