Copying a character to Beta

I just wanted to get all set for the new trial beta test, I came across this link:

http://boards.cityofheroes.com/charactercopy.php

I only see an option to copy to the test server and the Going Rogue test server... Is this the incorrect tool to copy my characters over to beta?

Going Rogue test server is the Beta server. Not quite sure why they've left that one up and running and distinct from regular Test, though.

Ah ok, so going rogue is the one I should be copying my character onto for the beta incarnate trial? Thanks!

Yeah, I guess that one is the one they're using for Issue betas from now on, while Test is just for patches.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's because there was always someone complaining that Test wasn't available any time a Closed Beta was held on it. Now, Closed Betas can be held on Beta/GR, and Test remains open to all.

Eh. Even as a lesser server, it's still extra hardware to maintain.

It lets them patch things to live while being able to use the beta server for specific functions (and one that's facing the world, at that).
