Ah i got one because im still a butterfly :)

Calm down everyone. It's pretty much been said that if you were part of the managed beta at the start of the 8.0 and 8.5 betas that you will receive an invite for 9 and be accepted. Just hang on.

At the moment, it seems like the batch approvals will start next week.

+ Important note to all:

If you get accepted into this beta, please do not post/leak/spread rumours about the client. Staff of this forum, please do not create news posts/accept news posts about this beta (+ please delete post/threads which provide such information). Access for beta participants will be removed- for all of us- if any information what-so-ever, even just a feature list (*cough* Neobond!), is leaked.

Hm... I was part of WLM8 and that butterfly thing but no invite yet... Guess I'll have to wait.

- Sign-in and messaging in multiple locations up to four at once.

- Signature sounds.

- Per contact sounds.

- SPAM Reporting.

- Animated Display Pictures - supports animated .gif files as display pictures.

- Link in Personal Status Message - URLs in Personal Status Messages are hot and clickable in the Messenger contact list.

New features. I'm sorry, but ALL of that is playing catch up to AIM. WLM finally has the best looking UI of the main three, but it's laughable, IMO, that they are still playing catch up to the other clients and people still laud the client as the best.

got my invite yesterday :)

[knightracer]

I'm in. How many people received multiple frisbees from the previous beta? I don't know why I got 7 of them.

[whitewings05]

Awesome! I'm in the 8.1 beta can't wait for the switchover. =p

Actually what I'm really waiting for is some work and tinkering on googletalk. It's okay right now but it's still beta and there are many roughs edges in that.

[Watters]

I was in the managed betas in the past but nothing this time? :(

[Nish Vamadevan]

I think they send invite by batch, wait for a couple of weeks... They also send the next wave of Invite during the Beta period...

[Harsesis]

Mines is still pending... cant wait for acceptance :D

Has anyone been accepted for it yet?

[srwal]

Ah i got one because im still a butterfly :)

LOL and i thought this was a free community....... what are you now MSN police or something

[Jordan M.]

The beta is alegadly postponed for the feature list leak, as for those Butterfly's without invite's check the newsgroup

[ShaneSparky_YYZ]

i'm a butterfly and i didn't get any :(

Same here, don't worry... ;) Check the NG and ask..

[tunafish]

what newsgroups are we ment to be checking.....

[Victor V.]

Before I even knew Microsoft Connect I could use WLM 8 (the orange, 1st version) when it was invite-only...

I just hope I receive the 9 now.

I wouldn't exactly worry about him. Check his avator photo, if that's him, he looks to be about 16. I don't hold much stock in him being able to do much.

Plus we all know that Neowin tends not to be the first to leak much when it comes to wlm, that falls to mess.be or the others.

[tristantj]

Yeah, i?m also wondering, nothing about windows live messenger on newsgroups (only 8.5 and wlm for pocket pc:pp)

Where is his clue going?

[Shaelon]

For the first time, i didn't recieve a WLM 9 invite... im really desperate to try it out 2!! LOL... help?
