Hi everyone,

A big congratulations! Joomla 3 Beta1 has been released :)  Please read the official Beta1 announcement at:
http://www.joomla.org/announcements/release-news/5460-joomla-3-0-beta1-released.html

Also, on Saturday, September 15th, there will be a Joomla! Pizza Bugs and Fun (and Birthday Party!)
http://community.joomla.org/blogs/community/1674-pizza-bugs-and-fun-sept-15-2012.html

Please tweet and pass this information along to other developers.

Kind regards,
Nick

p.s. Additionally, there will be a *pre-release* of Joomla 2.5.7 (for testing) released within the next three days (possibly today).  There will be a separate announcement for it once it's ready, but I just wanted to give you a heads up to be looking for it.

This is always the case in prereleases to make testing easier.

OK about removing folder but was bit surprised that alpha sample data had more samples that's all. 
Thnx for advising.

Congrats on the release.

Quick bug report for whoever is in charge of the install scripts.  I looked at filing a bug but it seemed a bit overkill for someone that can simply do a quick check in.

The 3.0.0.sql update file for mysql has a small typo in it, causing the 'database' function of the com_installer to fail.

line 18 should say:
ALTER TABLE `#__users` DROP COLUMN `usertype`;

But the table name is missing the "s" for users.

Hi Aaron,

Can you report the bug using the following process?
http://docs.joomla.org/Filing_bugs_and_issues

It *might* get missed otherwise.

Kind regards,
Nick

Now you have the choice of many different versions of sample data. The default is one page only as mentioned.
For testing  I recommend either learn joomla (which is the old default) or 
Test whcih is for testers and includes useful information such as the fact that the remove folder is disabled for testing releases.

This article has more testing advice
