So here's the plan for development, tell me if this makes sense or not:

1.) Beta V4, V5... - Large changes that require everyone to upgrade to use DarkSend
2.) Beyond this point, DarkSend is ready for real use and will be available in binary form (closed source still)
3.) Release Candidates - RC1, RC2, etc - I'll be taking bug reports, but these are smaller changes and none of them should require everyone to update
4.) First stable release - I think this stage should also be closed source until we're sure everything is perfect
5.) Public audits, where the closed source is shared with someone who people trust to review DarkSend (I'm not sure who that would be yet)
6.) After all audits pass and we have a real product, opensource

That sounds good... How many more betas do you think? Is there anything we (I mean everyone else, you are the busy one!) can do to help out in the meantime?

This looks great to me as well.

While Evan gets the technical side sorted, we as a community need to get things moving on the marketing side BEFORE the first stable release and public audit. This way the website looks sexy, all the information about the coin is in one place, and we look like an established community/business.

When the media and journalists start investigating they will more likely give us the attention we deserve if everything looks organised and professional.
