What's the next phase... open beta?

[Sprok]

So does anyone have any idea what is next? Where there be an open beta? Hopefully there is another event prior to release next month!

There is supposed to be an open beta phase but it has not been announced when it will start... given that release is Sept 22 (I think), I would expect that open beta should start somewhere between 1-2 weeks in advance of that to do final tuning on servers for load, etc. So my personal guess would be Sept. 8 - 15 for open beta start.
