Nocturna1 Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I just got the e-mail saying I'm officially invited to participate in the upcoming Windows Installer 6.2 beta. I can't wait to become a beta tester. I hope that if I provide proper feedback that I will be invited to test future software as well! I can't wait!

killtoskate1217 Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 Hrm, I got the email as well... Dear beta tester, Welcome to the Windows Package Installer 6.2 beta! We will be starting within a few days; please take a few minutes to review the information on the Beta Place Welcome page and linked pages. During your first visit to our beta site, you will be presented with the EULA survey. Accepting the EULA is a condition for continuing in the beta. When the beta begins, you will receive the 'Beta Is Live' e-mail containing information on downloading the Beta Kit with files and information that you will require for this beta. While the Kit is not currently available, the link to it will be live when the beta begins. The installation of Windows update packages is typically an automated process that requires little input from the user. However, as a beta tester in the Windows Package Installer 6.2 Beta Program, you may benefit by understanding a little more about the Windows Package Installer and the installation process. A short tutorial is available on our Beta Place site, on the Installer Tutorial link. If you have any questions about the beta, please do not hesitate to contact me at a-rogeh@microsoft.com. I look forward to working with you on this interesting beta. Warm regards, Roger Holland Beta Manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nocturna1 Posted August 7, 2005 Author Share Posted August 7, 2005 Still though, it's a start and I'm sure if you're able to provide at least some type of feedback perhaps you'll get invited into other betas down the line. That's what I'm hoping for. Start off small and work my way up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
