Hi Julien,

had a couple of people get the iso from torrents, they are not pulling in
the correct beta (no Update Mananger, for example). Is this because the same
file name was used for the 2nd beta3? Has the 'stable beta' got a new file
name to ensure that it is picked up via the torrents?

Regards,

Phill.
