But betas ARE for working out bugs

It is most likely still in alpha because the framework is not stable enough to develop modules. It would not be nice to start developing a module for an unstable framework to only find out later that the fix for being unstable means you have to re-write the module.

I know that in the WoW world, we often encounter the perpetual "beta". However, I do not believe that is the case here. When it goes to beta that means it is ready (or they think it is ready) for module writers to use the API in a reasonable stable state.
