Unstable means just that: new features are still in flux and may change
(in potentially breaking(!) ways), it contains bugs, it isn't feature
complete, and there is no guarantee that a backup from the beta version
will be restorable under the final Firebird 4 release. All in all it
isn't ready for production usage.

Also be aware that the firebird-support list is only for released
versions. Questions about development versions (including betas) should
go to the firebird-devel list.
