O.P. Should WLM beta testers be Plus! beta testers too?
I believe that it would be fair that all Windows Live Messenger official beta testers be also beta testers for Plus!. Because this way new versions of Plus! can be tested in all types of different enviroments and situations.

I don't think so, generally patchou wouldn't be horribly concerned with Plus! not working properly with a BETA version of WLM, since BETAs change too often and he'd have to be constantly releasing updates... seems kinda counter productive.

There's enough people that will be using the betas that are testers that it doesn't matter. Stop trying to get yourself in on the beta because of your WLM Beta tester status.

I never said I was a WLM beta tester :S

Im justing saying against possible API changes, it would be nice if Plus! was already compatible with the final version.

Like I said, Patchou has probably taken this into account already, hence why we have butterflies and official testers on MP!L's beta testing team already.

What's with people trying to find their way into MP!L's testing team lately anyway? There's people complaining about being here longer than other people who were made testers, and about having a higher post count than other testers, and now this; people saying there should be more official WLM testers on the team.

Don't you think that it would be better to have people with good understand of plus more than those who have access to finding a bug here and there?  I would hate for Patchou to give it to people just because they are WLM tester, that is not a good enough reason.
