Scratch

I just went to beta.scratch.mit.edu and it was exactly the same as the alpha site. O.o

That's probably where the beta is going to go when the Scratch Team wakes up.

I just got a laptop for my birthday and I've been on reddit for hours and I can't stop.

So it appears the Scratch team is busy working on Beta! It's semi-live at http://beta.scratch.mit.edu . The reason I say "semi-live" is because you can go to the site, and no password is needed, but it wont let me login to the site. It says "Sorry. You're not able to login to Scratch 2.0 yet."

edit: Glad to see they finally added an eraser to the paint editor xD
edit 2: Wha? Since when did they remove cloud variables!?

You don't need the password? I still do.
Anyway, Lightnin said that Cloud Variables would be disabled in the early part of the beta to improve them.

Weird, just tried it again, and it didn't ask for a password. Maybe it didn't update for you yet? I don't know. Also, about cloud variables, did he say when they'd be back?

Edit: Just tried going to the beta site on another computer, and it asked for the password. My bad. The password must just be saved on my computer.

Still asking for a password 

Hi

As alpha tester and fr.po file translator  on the server  Pootle, I would like to say it is urgent to look closely at the available language translations.

A month ago  I warned the head of the translation at the Team Scratch to report these shortcomings : I never got any answer.
I wish to be contacted with my email address: i.scool @ mac.com.
On one hand :
I would not publish these shortcomings publicly because  the Team Scratch makes an outstanding job.
But in the current state of translations it is not serious at all.

On an other hand all these shortcomings must be notified ,  because it concerns the translation of all languages
But if you want or if you give me the permission I publish my comments on this forum.
Sincerely

Happy Beta day!

I'm pretty sure I was told that the gates don't open until noon though - so please be patient.  If I get new information, I'll let you know 

Ooo, can't wait for this to come out! I even get out of school early today, Scratch 2.0 here I come.

Maybe I should give up my study hall playing with 2.0?

Scratch 2.0 beta is coming out today. I am so excited!

It is noon. When is it coming!

It is only 7 am at MIT! Don't worry-- only a few more hours! 

Sorry, I usually forget the right parenthesis...
