Not only announced it, but the project manager has been posting constant updates on this list, and I would imagine it is not a violation of the NDA to discuss his updates. I for one, hopefully am now part of the solution and not part of the problem, either perceived or real.
Most Beta projects are conducted very secretly and little info is released publicly until the product is released. But in the Case of Red Sky, MM is demonstrating their commitment to address all the problems that have been discussed on here, no matter how off-the-wall they seemed at the time, as the feature requests that have been submitted, as well as other places. Based on the posts and updates I have seen on this list, MM is doing a terrific job in fixing CFMX and its installer packaging. Based on my own participation in the beta project, I will honor the NDA and just comment that I am really excited and positive about it. There have been posts complaining about MM's communications (or lack of) and it is evident that this has changed radically for the better. ====================================== Stop spam on your domain, use our gateway!
