I currently know of no mailing list. Just keep an eye on the beta page
occasionally.

There is some functionality in the source code to automatically check for
updates via internet, but I don't know if that feature is activated already.

The beta installs in a different directory than the 3.6, so you'll have both
versions available, and can switch between them anytime you like.

Yeah; many people have put a lot of effort in it for good.
