RC2 back to RC1?

Why Microsoft needs to have two classes of testers?
I think, the policy is to plant confusion.

It has always been this way. Most people have never heard of and have no
idea what Connect, MSDN, or TechNet is.

What 2 classes are you referring?
The people in the Technical Beta are testing for Microsoft and are expected
to give feedback.

Most likely you are participating in the CPP program.
As a CPP participant, you are previewing Vista for your own purposes and not
expected to provide feedback to Microsoft.
The CPP participants are not Beta testers although they are using a Beta
product.
