As the person who manages the Bost Nomination Pilot waitlist, I'm here to say that I add folks to the program from that list every month, and no one has been expunged from the list.

Running a beta program is an agonizingly slow process, and I share your frustrations with how slowly the program is growing. The tools to scale it up more broadly simply haven't been built yet. We're working on it, but what I had hoped would be a 3-6mo beta is likely going to be more like a 12-28mo beta.
