Hmm nice to hear that. People have been going crazy cause most who upgraded to wlm early (managed beta testers or early invitee's; before the whole "omg wlm" rush) and who arent plus! live testers must be going crazy

So is this the end of 4.0 testing or will the internal testing continue ? Also how long till the work on 4.10 starts (erm 3-4 months ?) You said it would be soon right Just wondering

I'd like to know as well. I thought that there would still be closed beta testing happening concurrently with this preview, from what I can gether from ~INVASION~'s post, this isn't the case.

that is good news for people!

good work, patchou

Very Good News , Patchou.

Great news, the demand has gone up alot.

That's a good idea. I saw Microsoft already started some marketing sites that promote WLM Public Beta. You don't need your account activated anymore (provisioned/invite). So more and more people are starting to use WLM now.

Personally I think Microsoft will release a final version of WLM in the next 30 days. This was on the WLM Connect site the 9th of this month:
