I have downloaded all exepct the latest because i´m school now, but when I come home i will donwloaded it and test it.
I'm so busy I shouldn't even be on this board. but I couldn't resist playing with each new patch for at least a couple of hours. not a real test, but testimony to the irresistible pull of the patches
Didn't tested them as I have no time
but would have tested if I had time.
I think the public betas are a good thing!

But of course I would test them wouldn't I.
I'm not sure if the pace of the patches allowed much in the way of testing though. I was playing 2-3 hours per day so I could only get one game or so finished per patch.
Maybe a follow up question would be "How late in the game did you test most of the patches"
I had full games on b1 and b4 and played to 1700's on the others

I only started to use them when the 2nd beta patch came out since I didn't have much time before that. Tested(played) the rest though.
I think is great idea to let the forummers be a part of the beta process

I'm not sure how much I 'Tested' per se. But I downloaded them all, and played as much as I could under them.
Downloaded all patches, but have not got round to actually test them (do not have the energy in the evenings);

Well, I haven´t downloaded them - no time for testing them, BUT I think the idea od a publica beta test is excellent!

I think that there are other two positive things of the public beta:
1) People that downloaded and tested the beta, also receives suggestions of those who don't know how to use them, there is also indirect participation.
2) The detail of the programmer's progress and improves added in each release of the beta also generate suggestions.

I've DL and tested them all! Really great, Johan!
I hope this is something you'll do in the future too.
I've downloaded them all, and I've tested them. It's an excellent way of involving the community in the beta testing and indeed, for us to provide feedback.
I checked "downloaded some and tested" but I really haven't had time to test. So I will probably not download the rest, just wait for the final. At this stage in the development I think this is a fabulous idea (did I use the word fabulous?-sheesh). For those of us who are standing on the sidelines watching it is great to see the feedback directly affect what is being programmed. Additionally there is no waiting for months only to find that one of the 50 fixes is broken. It gets tested and fixed right away.
D/L and tested to some extent. Its a great idea IMHO there's been as much balancing in this set of beta patches as in any of the other patches.
Yeah the patches may be fast Derek but they came just as fast in the HoI beta and we managed that.

Yes thats right but when someone complains about betas "missing" a slider problem they might realise now how little time we actually get to check out new features.
