    You ask a very pertinent question, When? I've been asking the same question for more than a year. First I was told 1st quarter 2015. That came and went. Then I was told May 2015. It is the 26th of May today - I'm not very optimistic that it will happen before the end of the week. Somewhere I read that Bentley have anounced that releasing Openrail this year is their top priority - I would hope so. Furthermore, I understand that there will not be a beta-version.

  • Christiaan and Neville,
    An invitation only Beta was released in March for SELECTseries 4 Bentley Rail using OpenRoads technology. The invitations were to known named contacts in Bentley Rail SELECT subscriber organisations. Apologies here if you were not included, but it was not an 'open to all Beta' since we did not want to burden organisations and there were several pre-requisites impacting a more open Beta.

    With regard to the dates you mentioned, these were defined as a Q1 Beta with a target release in Q2 and we are still on target for these but there is associated release material needing to be in place for training etc.

    Please keep an eye on the communities and Bentley.com for release announcements.

    Regards

    Ian
