In you're interested, we also announced beta versions of Swarm and Compose today:

Might as well ask here. What does "beta" mean?

I haven't noticed too many crazy changes with these tools so I'm wondering what this label means to you.

Basically it means 1) it's stable enough to be useful, 2) but not stable enough that we feel comfortable telling you to rely on it in production, and 3) the UI and integration into the rest of the Docker platform are susceptible to change.
