Galley Proof

We're still referring to it as the beta release. Coming from an old-fashioned publishing background, I proposed the term gallery proof. But it's a new era, I'm reminded.

With the launch of the Selections page and Variorum page today, we're closer to what traditionally would be called the final version. But as Klenwell and NP like to remind me, web publishing is a race between Achilles and the Hare. Or maybe that scene in Monty Python's Holy Grail is more apt. The closer you get to finished, the further you find you have to go.
