Kevin Schneider of the Autodesk Inventor Team announced the next release of Autodesk Inventor beta testing on his blog The Evangelist Speaks.

Here are the detailed instructions for signing up for the Inventor Beta:

To enroll in the Inventor Beta please go to: http://myfeedback.autodesk.com and select Sign up from the Active Zone Menu. You will then be asked to fill out a profile. Please use "GODDARD" in the Beta Code field (at the top of the sign up page) and select “Autodesk Inventor” as your product of interest. You will be emailed a password for the general site once the beta team has reviewed your application and approved you.

If you are already a member of the MyFeedback Beta portal (http://myfeedback.autodesk.com) you do NOT need to sign up, instead login to the beta portal and click on the User button found at the top of the page. Please add GODDARD in the Beta Code field and click Save at the bottom of your user profile. You can add multiple beta codes to your profile by separating them with a semi colon. If you have forgotten your password, you can click on the Forgot Your Password link under Login menu and an email will be sent to you with your password or send an email request to [email protected].

When you logon you will be able to see all the zones you are added to – initially this may be none. When you are added to a new zone you will be emailed a notice and the new project will appear on your MyFeedback portal page when logged in. The process of adding participants to zones is not automatic and requests are reviewed periodically during business hours and some betas may not be active or require a slight wait until the start date.

For those that are not aware I am the Worldwide Manager of Autodesk MyFeedback which handles all Autodesk product betas. Meet me at Autodesk University 2006 booth 415.

Cheers,
Shaan
