I suggest that we should treat beta and stable software the same way in 
the install scripts.

Ie, install_qgis_mapserver.sh  should be installed in the /bin directory 
rather than bin/beta_software/

We will distinguish between beta and stable software in documentation 
which ranks the maturity of software as per:
