News: Confirmed: No New Windows Vista Build Today

Ryan over at Bink has posted a confirmation from Windows Beta Team guru Paul
Donnelly that there will not be a new interim Windows Vista release today
and that testers won't be getting Build 5365.
http://bink.nu/Article6779.bink
"We are considering releasing updated Windows Vista code to Windows Vista
Technical Beta program participants as well as select TAP customers," a
Microsoft spokesperson tells me. "In addition to the CTPs, we sometimes
provide a select group of testers with current pre-release versions of
Windows Vista based on their feedback and testing needs. These builds are
not CTPs. As we have said, the next CTP will conclude the Beta 2 process and
will be called Beta 2. We are on track to deliver Beta 2 in the second
quarter of this year."

Thanks Andre - looks like I'll go and turn my spare machine off for the time
being... and take away the nodding water toy away from the F5 key ;o)

I think the reason why they Cancelled the New Build, is because, their
phones are ringing off the hook at MSDN Customer Support!

P.S. Now we just got to keep pushing them to give us Build 5342, and we
will be all set!

They will NOT be releasing 5342 to anyone else other than technical testers
Kevin.

There is no point in replying to him. He doesn't pay any attention.

Aye, but it's worth a go...

But you don't realize that you are feeding him, and I am begining to think
"you" Zack are doing it for some ulterior motive.

Yeh, I want to see this NDA... if in fact there is one.
There's space on the bandwaggon yet Andre )

This is pointless; the Panzke uncertainty principle *clearly* states that
one cannot simultaneously understand the NDA and be denied access to the
most recent builds of a beta program.

Really people . . . didn't any of you take elementary quantum mechanics?
