Yes, this is wrong.  It should be "We encourage users to use this
opportunity to test pg_upgrade for the upgrade from Beta1 or an earlier
version of 9.0. Please report your results."  However, I see the beta3
release notes are now on the web site so it seems too late to fix this.

Sorry I missed seeing this problem earlier.
