Beta Trial

I assume that the Beta Period for WS 6.5 has ended.

It would be nice to have found out in a less brutal way than than a system error from the Communities Web server.

The beta community forum was updated last Tuesday (the release day) - locked, with an announcement of the product release. Looks like that is no longer around now, a week later.

Yes, the beta ended when the product was released on 9/23/2008

I believe there was an email blast that went out to registered customers. You may want to check any spam/ email filters

I AM a registered and I have checked my spam filters.

I received no mail notification.

But then, in common with many others on the Beta trial, I got no notification of new beta versions either. (Ok I did get one recently, about two weeks ag=fter it had been released and I had seen and downloaded it anyway.)

PS

I AM receiving email notifications of updates to this thread. Si it's not my email address that is at fault.

What's the experience of others on the Beta trial.

Did any of you get notified?

I received an email back during the Friends & Family beta. Never any during the public beta, and none yet about the release.

I was told that there would be an email blast shortly after the release, thanks for your input and I will look into this to see what may have happened.

Again, thanks everyone for your input Smiley Happy

Unfortunately (and unusually), due to pressure of work, I did not log in for just over a week.

So I blinked, and it was gone!
