Here are some interview links as requested at the last guild meeting. I hang around the SWTOR forums alot so these pop up here and there and hopefully they should provide a good bit of insight into whats going on in TOR.
This one is about when they feel is the best time to start an Open Beta.

Wow, that Beta interview is back in April 2009. The "select group of players to test specific things" held true for sure.

Yes. Daniel Erickson stated this year at one of the conventions (I believe pax) that they held to the old theory that beta testing should actually test products versus allowing large numbers of players playing the game early as a form of marketing by word of mouth.
