The problem is, beta software has bugs.  If there were no expiration 
date, this buggy software could float around for years giving people 
errors and generating false bug reports (it's happened before).  The 
beta expiration is to protect both the development team (from trying to 
fix already repaired bugs), and the end user (from using buggy software).

Remember, POV-Ray v3.6 is still fully functional.  There's nothing 
preventing you from using it instead.
