How long does it take to get a download link after signing up for the beta? This looks very cool.

Thank you for your interest in the plugin.
It will depend on the beta stage. Right now, it should be within 24 hours. Usually what happens is that a lot of people get it at the beginning but few new testers take a look at the more final builds. This time I'm trying something different. Once there are several testers with Beta 1, requests will be pooled until another build comes out.
