JMHO.
I don't believe it is right to deny the rest of the teams of the benefits of what the beta teams produce.

The things that Phil, Joe, Rick and the rest of the beta-ers do behind the scenes would astonish you. What they publish is only a small part of their contribution. What they are really contributing is scraping their knees against our mistakes over and over again until we figure out how to fix it.

Please do not assume that because you have not read a document with someones name on it that they have not directly contributed to your experience.
