Just curious. Is it possible we might see Beta releases in the near future because of all the changes that are going to be taking place with the service in the coming months?
I'm not too sure. This is definitely an idea I support personally, but from a business perspective it might not be the best idea to publicly throw unfinished plans on the table, especially for stuff that could ruin our customer's privacy. Our QA process have changed a lot and we are going much deeper than before so I don't feel like we need public testing at the moment. But we do know there's some demand for it from curious people or tinkerers that likes to try fancy new stuff, so we might use it when the situation is clearer We're still early in development for some of the new stuff.
Given the importance of the changes however, I wouldn't be surprised if we end up going for a few public pre-releases or betas of the almost finished product shortly before we go for the real release just to iron out the last few bugs and catch anything we would have missed.

Thank you for the speedy and honest response! I'm really excited to see what's coming down the pipeline in the next few months and I certainly understand your concerns from a business standpoint. If you guys do decide to release beta versions I certainly wouldn't complain about getting to test the new features early! You guys have never disappointed me.
