I think the beta forum was available to everyone by accident. It's gone now...
H19.5 daily builds were also available for a short period, probably also by accident, as they aren't available anymore...

I heard Houdini 19.5 was just released.

COPs 3.0 RFE: huge amount of support by the beta testers. But zero response from the devs.

I read those first three words and got super excited. Then I read the second sentence - oh well, the hope never dies.

DASHBOX!! yeah ! all about anything that makes houdini easier and quicker to work with, instead of more things!!
thx !!
