Beta-testing, 0 distance

The experience of previous 25 years demonstrates that: every new feature for OS/2 requires several years of development, usually new modules are included to OS with delay: 3 years, 5 years or 10 years.

It's wrong!

New functions should be available today. At coming friday, not in 2030 year.

OS installer should offer list of beta-versions of new modules (new 30 - 50 experimental modules).
