I believe they did refer to that article because it provides basic  
information on beta testing. For instance:

The information published in the context of 2.7.5 are still relevant.

That the beta effort has survived 2.7.5 and has gone forward up to  
2.9 is rather an excellent news. This is in great part due to Bill's  
dedication (thanks Bill) and user taking these beta exercises seriously.

Best,
