Hi All


Why isnt there a udate for msn messenger 8.0 (windows live beta)
its out now...as i have but i want Messenger Plus for it..but i need the update.. so please can you update Messenger Plus for msn messenger 8.0 


From Kieran J (KEZZA)

Messenger Plus! Live is still in the early beta stages and hasn't even been released to testers yet. So Messenger Plus! Live will (hopefully) be released when Windows Live Messenger Final is released, as WLM is currently in the beta stages, and still very buggy.

yeas but windows messenger beta is out look http://www3.imagine-msn.com/minisites/messenger/d....aspx?locale=en-gb

As you said yourself, the BETA for Windows Live Messenger is out. Traxor said there will be a Messenger Plus! Live released when Windows Live Messenger is no longer in beta but a final. That might take some months.

yes but why would they still release if it is still a beta
and a full version to.....?

One could say that it's a cheap way to test a product.

WLM is a product that will be used by tens of millions of people.
Finding bugs in a small group (i.e. Messenger developer team in Microsoft) would be an enermous task.

So, they decided to release a beta version to see people's reactions about the beta, get feedback and bugs submitted by WLM beta users.
In fact, some people are obsessive with beta (read: buggy) products.

i have tested it like..personally i fink its SH** without Messenger Plus!
i dont see why microsoft would realease instead of realesing when its complete...the bastar**- there just tryna bug our pcs!

ok, i uderstand but i dont understand microsoft askin the public for the views on "WLM" Wht do u think they have fuc**** TESTERS!

Microsoft doesn't force people to use the new WLM beta. They just make it possible for the public to view what's coming next.

They have testers to find bugs.

Mate, take some prozac or something .

The reason why the public is used as testers is because of the scale of the testing, they can get millions of people trying different things, and situations that the MSN team might not ever even thing of trying, and see how the public reacts to changes they've made

Also there are billions of different software and hardware combinations that the MSN team can't test compatability for them selves. this is why MSN chooses to use the public in there tests(most of them).

During the beta stages, the previous final version, in this case MSN 7.5 is still avalible for download, and in this case, its recomended if you do not like WLM with out Plus! Live.

One of the main reasons they are letting the public use it is so they can test their server capacity.

I (personally) think this topic has been discussed a couple too many times...

So for the record:


Messenger Plus for Windows Live Messenger will be released when WLM is final.. Not earlier, Not now... Patchou is working on it so stop asking for it!

Just my € 0,02 (or dollars, or pounds or whatever you like )
No flame intended, just informing...

Because Microsoft might change and add a few things in BETAs. So Patchou has change or add a few things for Messenger Plus Live!

its gonna be long untill you see public WLM and MP!L. lets just sit bak and wait.

its gonna be long?  i dont think its going to be that long.

could be right,

as i thought Rob.s said it, 

this might have been asked but could Patchou make a patch for his current version of plus to run in the live beta.

wht other patches??

I think Animal misunderstood you. He thought you meant patches like A-Patch and Mess Patch. You will have to wait until the WLM version of Plus! is out. Just wait, have patience . It is currently being tested.

Mhmm... I am really sad that there is not limited public beta for WLMplus!....Yeah using WLM since 2006-03-09 and now i miss some cool features of MSGPLUS!
If there is a possibility to get a prerelease of WLMplus! i'll be so happy, please i don't want to revert to 7.5 cause i use with my 20 invited friends the new shared-folders and don't want to miss it anymore... Well i think it is the best feature in the WLM8, you agree? Offline-Sending is not sooo significant feature, my 2 cents to the WLM8...

I could not understand why there is no free downloadable BETA of WLMplus!.
I believe that only people could use it, when they are invited to use the WLM8, so if you are  not you could not use the WLMplus!
Right?
Please let me know how to get the WLMplus!

...with kind regards
