Marker of a public Tyrus API that is still in "beta" non-final version.

This annotation signals that the annotated public Tyrus API (package, class, method or field) has not been fully stabilized yet. As such, the API is subject to backward-incompatible changes (or even removal) in a future Tyrus release. Tyrus development team does not make any guarantees to retain backward compatibility of a @Beta-annotated Tyrus API.

This annotation does not indicate inferior quality or performance of the API, just informs that the API may still evolve in the future in a backward-incompatible ways. Tyrus users may use beta APIs in their applications keeping in mind potential cost of extra work associated with an upgrade to a newer Tyrus version.

Once a @Beta-annotated Tyrus API reaches the desired maturity, the @Beta annotation will be removed from such API and the API will become part of a stable public Tyrus API.
