<div class="moz-cite-prefix">There are no plans to add back a beta
feature(or any features, really). ATN is not under active
development, it's just in a basic maintenance state. You can still
target different versions of Thunderbird by using
strict_max_version and different major version numbering as
mentioned at the bottom of the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://developer.thunderbird.net/add-ons/updating/tb68">TB68
update docs</a>. Though keep in mind only one version can be in
review queue at a time. Here is <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/cardbook/versions/">an
example of CardBook</a> doing that with 51+ for TB78 and 44/45
for TB68.<br>
<br>
ATN displays versions for your Thunderbird client version, or
defaults to 68 if you visit the website in a regular browser. When
auto-updates for 78.2 are turned on, the default for ATN will be
updated to 78.<br>

With 78 coming in, people are publishing extension betas, but for
a long while ago, ATN/AMO hasn't offered a mechanism for
publishing betas separately from regular versions (like it used
to); so we either keep betas on other channels-of-distribution, or
push them as a replacement for the older stable versions.

I've forgotten why the beta version feature disappeared from
ATN/AMO; can someone post a reminder of why that happened, and
perhaps speak to whether there are plans to restore this feature?
