I'd agree with Ant here. The only "buzz" I'd like to see is just a heads up in
the form of:
"Update coming soon"
a couple hours b4, so we can be available to update the server if needed and
solve some problems. On big functionality changes, like reply the beta is
perfect for that, to get stuff working. Not that Replay worked well at start,
but meh.
