What steps do we need to take to launch it?

I think we could really get a boost by having a bigger call for
testing in the announcement with the next alpha (and there's a little
time to stabilise it more until then), where we could also have a day
or two after telling people to report their findings and problems in
#opensuse-factory. Advertising things like the sat solver, new
installer, etc. could certainly help here :-).

Any thoughts?
