So... 2021.36.8.5 started pushing to existing FSD beta testers early Saturday morning, more or less on schedule. Roll out was slow, but by Monday morning they had more or less filled the pipe and the install rate of the remaining stragglers dropped to a trickle. Since then, nothing.
It's now Wednesday. I think we need to start assuming that a decision has been made internally to halt the addition of new testers. Note that new 100's and 99's aren't getting added either. It's just being held to the population that already had it.
I doubt that's likely to change. They have all the info they're going to get. If there was an actual safety issue, of course, we'd see a rollback. But... silence seems like bad news for 98's.
My guess is that we won't see new testers added until the next version is available, hopefully on the 19th.
