Out of curiosity, why is it beta and not a normal (i.e. non-beta)
patch? Thanks.

The article has 3 'excellent' ratings already, and yet the download
pages for all three versions have '0 downloads'?

Because that would take longer. If instead of releasing it as a public
beta and just having a private beta as in major releases, it would
probably be another month or so before the update came out.

Maybe they used the rating for

"Internal Application Error
Catastrophic failure"

:-)

Ah, that was Mozialla. For IE you must be fast to click on the "click
here" link or you are back at the agreement page. Is my installation
corrupted, or is there a bug?

You're complaining about getting it sooner then latter and
having hundreds of people test it instead of a handful?

JUST CURIOS???

Listen, don't put words in my mouth. I said curious, I didn't complain
in any ways. Look it up if you don't the difference.

I can't download it (Architect). I keep on pressing the "Yes" button,
and it keeps on bouncing me back to the "Borland Public Beta Test Disclaimer"

Any ideas what's wrong?

You must click as fast as possible on the appearing "if you are not
redirected... click here" link.

Maybe they want to test our reaction speed :-)

I had the same exact problem with the Enterprise link using IE. It worked
correctly using FireFox.

Borland are trying to convert people to Firefox by stealth.

Thank you Borland!

I must say, to have released 2005, a patch for D8 and another for D2005
(real soon) in such a short period is a major feat. You must be driving
the developers reeeeaaal hard!
