Betas checking for beta updates was once mandated, but during code review I saw that due to a user request I had changed this behavior. Therefore, beta users should be sure to turn this option on, in the Updates menu of the application. I am now forcing this back on, as the user requested change was not appropriate. Sometimes I am too quick to want to please, and this was one of those cases.

I always had that option checked in update menu .
I do check manually though, but i do that few times a week or I read new release here  :)

Good, I hope all users were as diligent. I am little upset at myself to be honest, as some betas I definitely wanted people to know updates were available for, and most people would assume a beta version checks for betas. I did intend that, actually, despite the user desired change, but the maintenance had went astray (it is a long answer).
