CrushFTP 6 Public beta released!

Its been a long time in development to get this new version ready, but its finally here. New website is in place, docs are being written, movies are being recorded, and CrushFTP 6 is available as a beta for you to try things out yourself.

Just go to the download page on www.crushftp.com and download a copy today. This is *not* intended for production use yet, and will *not* work with a CrushFTP 5 code, and I do *not* yet offer upgrade licenses for it. Its beta...and I'm looking for feedback and bug reports first.

Thanks,
Ben
