No, it is the place to post your philosophy, and the place to make it 
absolutely clear whether or not you are working to release what you 
think is a stable product or whether you expect the users to become 
unwilling beta testers.

Just the philosophy please.  If you accidentally mistook a pre-release X 
version for a release version and shipped it, that's something you can 
gloss over in the fine print.  If you think it is better for the users 
to deal with pre-release problems they deserve to know.
