The email address is betateam@corel.ca. from what I understand the beta team is in Canada, but the Bryce team is in Sandusky Ohio. The URL for the beta news page is http://www.corel.com/betaprogram/index.htm I don't know too much about the improvements but I have heard that render times will be shortened dramatically because of the new architecture. I also heard that real time fly arounds will be possible in rendered state and not just in wireframe mode. Anything that makes it render faster is ok with me. I'll keep you posted if and when I hear more (at least until I sign a NDA, hehe)
