It seems that some people confuse private beta's with some type of elitist recognition, and then feel the need to let everyone know about it. I used to get a bit irked when 'neo' was under development, and people that didn't even work at mm would gnash their teeth at others for even bringing up the word 'neo', but then realized all they want is to let everyone know they're part of the beta. Knowing this, I don't get as confused - I just wish there was another way they could be recognized without having to call people idiots. Maybe mm could make a "private beta testers" web page, and then the NDA police could link to it in their sig or something - "Private RedSky Beta Tester - Gold Status" www.macromedia.com/elitiny
If they really cared about keeping the beta private, they would email the person directly and then tattle to MM. I doubt any of them do this - better to go for the personal recognition ;P Adam. > -----Original Message----- > From: Bryan Stevenson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2003 1:28 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Re: Red Sky beta 2 released > > > OK...why doesn't everybody call the mothers of the folks that > said "Red Sky" > on this list and get it over with....mabye they'll get their > mouths washed > out with soap. ;-) > > We all bloody well know what NDAs are...it's up to MM to > enforce them...not > the members of this list. > > Far more than enough said...come on list police...swing that > billy club!! > > Bryan Stevenson B.Comm. > VP & Director of E-Commerce Development > Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. > t. 250.920.8830 > e.
