3 months before we get an invite to give away, or did you mis-understand my question, or did I misunderstand your reply? :)

Hello gareth,

The waiting's over! Since we received your application to join the Joost
beta test program, we've been very busy fine-tuning it for you.

So here's some good news: we're now ready to expand our beta test
program, and we're delighted to invite you to join us.

You can download the Joost software right away, by clicking on the link
below. You'll find instructions for installing and running the software
on our download pages.

Get Joost here:

Before you can watch Joost for the first time, you need to choose a
username and password. We've provided instructions for doing this on th
screens you'll see the first time you run the software. So hurry - this
is still beta software and it's not available to the general public yet,
so this is your opportunity to get the user name you want ahead of the
crowd!

Thanks for your patience in waiting for Joost. We hope you'll enjoy
using it as much as we've enjoyed creating it.

Cheers,

The Joost team

There really was no need to remove the link, you can download it from 'other' places, but you need to be invited to use it. :)

Gotcha, I was wondering how long we have to wait before we are given invites, that we can give to other people.

[edit] got the same network connection error :(
 
Network connection error might not have been an unintended network error this time. Got an email saying 0.9.2 is out:

Apologies to all - but we've got a new Joost version 0.9.2 ready for you - as your old 0.9.1 is no longer working (with a very unfriendly errormessage as well).

You can login and download the new 0.9.2 here: http://www.joost.com/download

Our apologies for this - but this is all part of being a beta. As you may know - we use SSL technology to protect your privacy. Once every other year or so these certificates need to be renewed. That moment came, for the first time in our existence, yesterday. Unfortunately we did not realize that we had a copy hardwired into the 0.9.1 client by accident. Hence this new 0.9.2 build.

We've also taken the opportunity to upgrade all our Long Term Storage machines; they are more than 4 times as efficient now. So if you have experienced any stuttering in the past - do try again and tell us if ourfixes have worked. Thanks a lot, Dirk-Willem, Joost
