Is this group still functioning? I see posts from 2009, but none since then. Of course, I am new to the site and there may be newer posts and I just don't know how to see them. Anyway, I am an indexer and just love it. But, I am only just beginning to use familysearch to find records about my ancestors. I get confused about all the different familysearches, pilot, new, old, beta. Which one is the real one--the one which has the most recent records?

We are still functioning, but there are so many forums, wiki' and blogs hosted on the Familysearch.org domain that we don't get much attention.

There are many Family search subdomains beyond that which you mentioned. There will be new ones that some communities will know about because they are volunteering to help build the data. The last I heard on "new" family search which is located at https://new.familysearch.org is that it will appear as a Family Tree tab for users with LDS related data.

There is a "new" family search released every three months so stay tuned.
