Beta versions of Active Forums 4.2 and Active Social 1.5 are now available to Active Forums Enterprise and Active Social Customers.  Active Forums Enterprise customers that do not have Active Social will also have access to Active Social 1.5.  We have also added an extra incentive to beta participants that encounter and report any bugs that they may find.  Each beta release also has a supported upgrade path to the final production release. 

I don't expect the beta release to last more than a couple of days.  Both versions are considered feature complete with very short lists of known issues.  However, eventhough we are running these releases on activesocial.com and activemodules.com they are still considered BETA.

Here are few links about these new releases (some might have restricted access):
