1. So when is a alpha done, how do you know when you would go to the next alpha stage. And so on with other versions such as "Beta" and RC.

2.I know a little about RC, but I know that when your just about done with your software about all bugs are gone and you release the first RC, when there are no more bugs is that when people say there in a Gold Release aka "Final" state.

disclaimer to people who always say "search", that helps no one imo.
(I googled..and Wikipedia is my answer? I'm already ahead of you. Software versioning - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
