After some back-and-forth among the release team, there's been a decision
to change this position: today's wrap will be 9.6beta4, and we'll try to
get something done about the AM property access issue before issuing rc1.
We only have a week or two to get this done without starting to impact
v10 development as well as hurting our chances of shipping 9.6.0 in
September. So let's start getting down to details.
