In a fit of beta withdrawal symptom, I threw caution to the wind and gave it a shot.

I got the 403 forbidden error so resorted to stsadm feature activation.

Most things are working but comments are dead because the CAPTCHA Image Validation image is not displaying due to a faulty url (double //)

 

The latest postings are also backwards in time (i.e. a blast from the past, my original 5 posts).

 

I expect to be able to resolve these issues and hope I don't regret installing this beta ;-)
