The current Windows SMP 6.23 Beta R1 client expires in a couple of days (4th July) but DON'T PANIC! Pande have released a new version (R3) that is a drop in replacement.

We have posted the drop-in replacement binary for the windows v6 client. This can be found at:

MD5 checksum: 5c14c566e11b69273477d7ca102c40c4

Refreshes of the full packages will follow.

This client has only minor modifications from the 6.23 client (it is near-identical to the 6.24 client currently released for Linux and OS/X). We are anticipating a major set of changes to the SMP client over the next several months, but we aren't quite there yet. Keep your eyes out for updates. (There are some big improvements to the SMP cores underway, and they will necessitate some new client code.)

As stated in the thread title, the 6.24R3 client will expire July 4, 2010. Assuming our new SMP cores are on schedule, you may wish to upgrade earlier, however, as we hope to phase out the SMP A1 core as we switch to the new future cores. But we'll release more details when the new software is released (date TBD--development is still ongoing).

Thanks for contributing to the project!

I think what they are hinting at is that the WinSMP client will soon perform equivalently to the Linux one.
 
I really hope so, would make life so much easier without having to run VMs. Will this update affect notfreds diskless folding?
