I'm really close to getting the features for PainlessSVN Professional ready for Beta 1. I'm thinking of doing a few betas to test different parts. The betas will most likely be time-locked. This means that they will stop working after a certain date. I'm looking at a 2 week window right now.

PainlessSVN Professional is small enough that I can put fixes and new features out fairly fast. The code base is only around 6,500 lines of C#. I know that the Workgroup and Enterprise versions will a LOT bigger than that.

I have setup a Beta role in this portal, so register then post a comment here if you want to be a beta tester. I have to assign this role manually for now. This will allow you to see the beta areas of the site when they go live. The beta testers that give constructive feedback will most likely get a free copy when PainlessSVN Professional is released.

I will copy this notice to the front page when I have Beta 1 done. So for now, only the people who read my blog will know about this. It's alright if you want to spread the word around. I just don't want people to get attached to a specific date.
