MM5 "check for updates" doesn't find v2508.

If I get MM5 to look for updates it finds 2507, but not 2508.
Why? Is there a built-in delay for new beta versions? How long is it.?

I have "Include Beta builds" checked.
Is my normal (non-portable) install of MM5 ; v2431.

I don't want to install 2507 due the crash bug relating to custom reports.

Hi,
It takes few days to get populated and reported on Beta version. It is always best to Monitor viewtopic.php?f=30&t=86639&sd=d for updated version.

I've been a couple betas behind and it still says I'm on the current version. I don't mind checking but is it doing that for other people as well?

Are you sure the check for beta releases is enabled under Tools > Options > General? It should now show Build 2508 as the latest beta available.

That was checked; it found 2507.
It looks like publishing a fresh beta is a multi-step process, and one of the steps was omitted.
