Sorry for jumping in late...

But that does not even make sense. Usually people who are beta users will always stay up to date with products, testing the latest and greatest, and any one who does leave it on, may want to at some point revisit the product, with out having to install it.

I have dormant products all over the infrastructure, I want to be able to use them when I want, not when the developer tells me.

IMHO In general date deceasing a product means your in it for one thing.... money, and we all know that money is the root of all evil :)
