I hope Fred won't mind me reposting this here:

Hello everyone,
We are still preparing Fuse for a new release soon and would appreciate 
help in testing that all the new features and all the old features are 
working properly.

The key new features are:
* Spectranet emulation
* SpecDrum emulation
* Disciple emulation
* Movie recording to FMF files
* SpeccyBoot emulation
* GTK+ 3 Support
* Many Win32 enhancements
* POK file support
* PZX file read support
* Plus lots of bug fixes

The fixes since the last release are:

Fuse:
* Split SNET block into SNET, SNEF and SNER so that flash could
   theoretically be saved separately - Spectranet SZX files from the
   previous beta are now invalid
* Correct video timing for +2A/+3 etc machines
* Implement Spectranet's "suppress NMI" flipflop
* Fix inverted DISCiPLE printer busy logic
* Empty sound buffer when emulation is paused using a shortcut key on
   Win32 UI (thanks, Lee Tonks)
* Add DISCiPLE ROM with EPSON printer support
* Correct restore of pentagon 1024 memory ports from snapshots
* Spectranet emulation bugfixes
* Make sure that SE RAM variables are initialised before they are
   referenced
* Add separate switch to enable ZX Printer emulation
* Fix SE writing dock and exrom pages to snapshots
* Update SE ROMs to v4.04
* Reset machine when significant interfaces are connected/disconnected
* Fix in-memory disk image becoming corrupted after saving the disk file
* Update to v1.38 of the +3e ROMs (thanks, Guesser)
* Fix loading of EDSK files with redundant sector images
* Many manual updates
* Add support for storing ZX Printer state in SZX files
* Allow up to 15 joystick buttons to be defined to accommodate e.g.
   XBox 360 ABXY button use
* Support setting late timings from SZX snapshots
* Support the binutils gold linker.
* Minor bugfixes

fuse-utils:
audio2tape:
* Print flag byte (thanks, Ivan Shmakov).
* Include read and computed checksum (thanks, Ivan Shmakov).
* Fix incomplete byte warning (thanks, Ivan Shmakov).

fmfconv:
* Force mpeg4 video encoder for youtube profile and don't force AAC
   audio encoder for ipod profile.
* Fix a crash when converting PCM stereo samples to mono.
* Fix the build on Debian stable and fix a crash when encoding H.264
* Fix a crash when input file does not exist
* Support ffmpeg 1.0.1 API
* Improve addition of annotation field to au format files

If you'd like to help you can find the second beta binaries for various 
systems at:

Debian (and hopefully Ubuntu):
http://people.igalia.com/berto/files/debian/fuse-beta/

There's packages for Debian 6 ("squeeze") and 7 ("wheezy"). Wheezy
packages use GTK+ 3, Squeeze uses GTK+ 2.

You need to install libspectrum8, fuse-emulator-common and either
fuse-emulator-gtk or fuse-emulator-sdl.
