Where to download beta of Sigil 6?
Does there happen to be a binary (Windows preferred) of the Sigil 6 beta?

No. The beta is closed. The creator(s) are working to solve the bugs. Perhaps there will be a new beta later.

I have a copy (windows MSI), but I would need permission to further propagate an un-supported (quirky ) version |

Quirky it was.
If you enjoy-crave the newest and edgiest of software, you will eventually have to learn to build from source. That is the joy/aggravation of the gift of GPL3 code. Myself, I will wait |

There is also no guarantee that this next released version will be entirely alike the beta was and you might have to learn how to do things all over again in a different way.

I know nothing about the GitHub client, but from the git command line you just run the command that is displayed on the Sigil source website, of:
Code:
git clone https://code.google.com/p/sigil/ If you are on Windows I use TortoiseGIT, mostly because I also use TortoiseSVN so I'm used to that style of explorer integration. It can do more than everything you need, though it can get horribly confusing to begin with the myriad of options. I think John summarised it well in an email when he said git is not so much a learning curve but rather more like leaping off a cliff. |
