Hi,
I have downloaded the beta from connect however when I attempt to download the kb2578133 as per the Update Rollout 3 Package Guide doc it says to contact support as the download is not available. The details of the KB are there, I click on the download and request button at the top, accept the EULA and then nothing.

Am I the only person here who is amazed (and appalled) that MS puts out a "Beta preview" for only 3 weeks!?!?! Who has the patience, time, interest etc. to go to all the trouble and then have it end in 3 weeks?
I must not understand what "The Beta preview will be ended by July 4" means. Maybe July 4, 2013? ;)

terça-feira, 26 de junho de 2012 19:53Some have dedicated test boxes especially for situations like these. No one is forcing you to participate. In my opinion, three weeks is suitable time to see if the update package installs correctly and if any problems manifest. The purpose is more to test the delivery and installation of the package vs. the behavior of the individual components of the package which have been previously released separately.Beta's are for testing, not real world production."Use of this build: This build is for evaluation purposes only. You should not install this in a production environment. Microsoft does not license you for, nor support installing in these environments.
Thank you for taking time to help us to improve the quality of the product. Your feedback is highly appreciated."

To enhance what BullDawg said:
"Beta" software (patches, etc.) is normally released with a fairly limited time frame for testing, and should generally not be installed in a production environment unless you're willing to rebuild your production environment if everything goes pear-shaped. Microsoft's "public beta" operating system releases are generally not what I would call "betas"; there are fewer (and less serious) bugs than I would generally expect given the amount of code involved, time frames are longer (there's so much that's new/changed that needs testing) etc. Generally, for an OS, what Microsoft releases for truly public consumption is a release candidate, software that Microsoft thinks it could release if nothing major is found.
I'm not on the WHS team, I just post a lot. :)

Now it is clear that in my original post, the following was true:
"I must not understand..."
Thanks BullDawg and Ken Warren for taking the time to educate me--it is appreciated.

Ning Kuang, it's a bit late now, but for feedback it would have been nice if you had also published a link to a page that described the changes in the Update , for those who were unable to download it or participate in the beta. Thanks for listening.

Yes, Thanks.
We are releasing it within next 1-2 month. An annoucement will be send once it is out, and will stick on this forum for at least 3 month so you won't miss it.
Thanks for the feedback, will try to give more details when refresh the build.
