@kev We put out Beta 8, and quickly found an issue where some users couldn't update. We thought we fixed that and released Beta 9. We discovered that was also problematic, so we pulled both of those until we could fix them and put out Beta 10. It should all be fine, but please do let us know if you hit any issues.

@pixelate @kev Exactly. And 8 did exist briefly, but we don't talk about it much and most users will jump straight from 7 to 10. 😉

I know that beta 9 was removed for quality reasons, but what happened to beta 8?

@BTyson Same thing - we realised it caused problems updating and replaced it with Beta 9 very soon after release thinking we'd fixed it. We thought wrong - hence we rolled back to Beta 7 until we HAD fixed it and were able to release Beta 10
