Well, building the client shouldn't be too hard the second time around, Alpha was really smooth, so I feel at least half of the core components of Alpha will be in Beta. Building that part won't be hard, it's the "new" stuff that was gathered that they have to translate all that feedback into code. but with Professionals.. it shouldn't be too hard.. I mean they are dealing with a way better Servers than with 1.0 was XD.
