    X6 Beta Invitations?

    For previous versions CA requested volunteers for Beta testing. We know that X6 is already in Beta testing but I've not seen any requests for volunteers at this time.

    When will the next phase of the Beta begin? Phase II, Public for SSA, etc.

    I'm very interested in upgrading my equipment and seeing how X6 will change/improve the way I work with Chief.

    Curious too - they must be doing in house beta testing?
    The purpose of Government is to control the common resources, not the common man.

    I don't think they would call that "Beta". Typically I think they've had a "Beta I" with pre-selected testers - before they asked for volunteers. Then they open up "Beta II" and finally "Public Beta" for all SSA Users. I just don't have any idea how long "Beta I" lasts.

    We are beta testing. As always, we scale our beta team up over time based on how effective they are at reporting issues. When the number of issues reported starts dropping off we will usually add more people. If you are interested you can contact our support team and ask to be part of the beta team.

    The beta program should expand in late October. If you are interested, send an email request to beta@chief....
