Feedback and Testing Focus

Beta sites are required to send AVBeta@Nai.com a 'progress report' outlining testing status frequently. Good or bad news, we are very interested in your feedback. To allow you to communicate freely with other Beta testers we have set up a list server for the Engine Beta. To join the list please send a blank email to join-engine_4180_beta@listserv.nai.com and reply to the auto response. To send emails to the group please address them to engine_4180_beta@listserv.nai.com. N.B. You can only send to the group from the mail address you used to subscribe.

Note: The Beta version of the engine will be disabled by any DAT file released after the 8th of January. It is important to update to the Release Candidate before that time.
