I was just checking out the DROD Sourceforge page, and I saw that there is supposedly a beta available, as of a few days ago. Is this open for anyone to test, or do you need some development tools to run it? And exactly which files do we need? If anyone can help beta test, you should make announcements on this board, since I am sure that I am not the only person that only frequents these particular boards.

Game on,

It's a closed beta that hasn't begun yet. Brad should announce at some point that we need testers. There is a specific way I like to go through testing so that me, Mike, and Brad aren't bogged down in bug reports. This is why I don't just announce the URL and ask everyone to start banging.

You're welcome to download the beta and try it out, but it's not useful at this point for you to report on bugs. And if you have problems getting it to work (you will for that build), I don't want to spend our limited time on that. We aren't planning on using that particular build for beta-testing.

O, it would be great to have you as a beta-tester. Pretty quick we will start the beta testing period, and I'm pretty sure anyone who wants to be beta tester will be able to.
