I'm looking for a few (3-6 maybe) volunteers who are willing to test new add-ins as I develop them. Ideal candidates are regulars on the forum, interested in trying new functionality, and willing to take (hopefully small) risks running in-development code. Having a 2nd server to test on is even more beneficial if you have a homebuilt that is your "playground".

If you sign up to do this, I need you to be able to turn feedback around relatively quickly (within a couple days preferably).

I also require that you not talk publicly about the add-ins under development until I've announced them.

If this sounds like you, please send me a PM stating that you agree to the NDA (non-disclosure agreement) request and I'll add you to the Beta program.

Thanks,
Alex

I'm daring. Even though I just have the one MSS I have all my data backup on other media. So if I lose data no big deal.

I'm game as well. I only have one MSS and travel a good bit (2-3 days at a time) during the week, but I can probably post results quickly otherwise.

Regards,

James

I'm in, too!

I have a 'production' WHS (MSS) and a 'legacy' (i.e., old, home-built) WHS.

I'll welcome pretty much anybody to test, but it's helpful (especially for those with lower post-counts) to have some info about your setup and experience. As I mention above, there's some inherent risk with testing in-development add-ins, so having plenty of storage and good backups can be critical.

If you are doing generic WHS things, I'm willing to participate to give a look at what happens on non-specific hardware.
