Facebook Turns on Staging Server for Developers
May 19th, 2008
In a note to developers tonight, the Facebook Platform team announced that it has turned on www.beta.facebook.com a day in advance of tomorrow night’s weekly push in order to give developers a chance to bang around on the release candidate.
This could very well be the dev server for the upcoming profile redesign sandbox. In the very least, it’s a nice gesture by the team to increase the chances of finding bugs that could adversely affect developers before the update is pushed.

Shortly after the platform launch they started turning this on when a few launches went bad. They haven’t turned to it in awhile. I agree with you though - The resurfacing of this could very well be the makings of a staging server for the upcoming profile redesign.

Would be nice if they told us what the upcoming changes are so that we knew what to look for. I don’t really want to test everything in my app.
