Windows Live Mail Desktop beta ends

Some statistics for the closing beta:

* This beta started on 27th March 2006.
* There were a total of 3080 registered users in the managed beta.
* They received 832 bugs and 358 suggestions over the entire beta
* The newsgroup has had over 3500 posts.

Feedback has closed and no more submissions are being taken on, but it’s important to stress that only the managed beta is closing - the product will still be in beta for some time yet. The newsgroups will remain active for a while, and access to the beta product will still be ongoing. There will be a next release of this product it’s important to say, as development to v2 of the product is going ahead. All current testers will be shifted across to the new beta, just as Windows Live Messenger testers will be onto 9.0.

What next? A new build is just around the corner - shouldn’t be far off at all. Maybe not the final product, but a new build isn’t far off at all.
