@justvanrossum … Though, this explanation makes a good case against using “final” as well (at least for the deliverable release):

@nicksherman @justvanrossum Yes, at work we use UAT (User Acceptance Testing) and Production servers for our software.

@nicksherman @justvanrossum We used alpha and beta internally, some special customers might see a beta, and then release candidate and release for the final stages. Of course, this was before the software as a service continuous release process

@nicksherman @justvanrossum “development” and “release” seem very intuitive to me. Things like “working” and “final” carry a lot of baggage.
