ALPHA BUILD UPDATE

We are preparing the build for release and expect to have the build ready for access early next week. Stay tuned, we will send an update once it’s ready for download!

ALPHA INVITATIONS

There have been a number of discussions in the community regarding Alpha build access recently. We are continuing to discuss our current participation strategy and will finalize any changes/communicate to the community, once we release the updated Alpha build. Our current top 3 tasks regarding Alpha participation are as follows:

Ensure that everyone that received an acceptance email has access to the Alpha.
Ensure that those that registered early for pre-release build testing, have access to the Alpha.
Assess Alpha participation options for adding more people as quickly as possible.
