Thanks a lot for these improvements! Just one question: are you sure that pinning 8.18+rc1 is a good idea for end users? Won't it make the process less transparent for them once 8.18.0 is out?

The README obviously needs to be changed once 8.18.0 is out. These instructions are to make it easier for people to get started with testing/running betas.

Oh and specifically about the pinning: if you don't pin Coq to 8.18+rc1, you will be prompted to upgrade to coq.8.18.dev now and then (most "recent" 8.18 version in core-dev repo), which is probably not what anyone wants.

Ah! I see, thanks!
