Topic: FHIR .NET Release schedule and alpha-feed

Now we have released 1.0.0-beta, we are going to try to structure our process of doing releases similar to Rust (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/2018-edition/appendix-06-nightly-rust.html):
- We will release a new version of the library on NuGet every 6 weeks. At the moment we release 1.0.0-final, we will also release a 1.1-beta
- Six weeks later, we will release 1.1 final, and release 1.2-beta, etcetera.
- This way we have 6 weeks to catch blocking issues and create hotfixes before we release the final version.
In addition to these beta and final releases, we now have an alpha-feed containing the NuGets built from each merged PR. This means that if you donate a PR and we pull it, you will have an alpha-build with your fix ready in about 20 minutes.
Of course, this would contain other alpha-level features too, so be aware. You can find this alpha-feed here: https://www.myget.org/F/fhir-net-api/api/v3/index.json. As you can see, we keep alpha releases out of the main NuGet repository, so we do not confuse users that are not interested in alpha-level releases.
