Peter—thank you for posting the videos to YouTube. I only had a chance to skim through them—a bit tl;dr for a workday—but what I see I like very much.
On to the beta!

Oh yes. Yes indeed :-)

I’m also a user of Merlin (and sometimes OmniPlan).
For me, Merlin is a formal project management tool - it can hold a lot of detail that enables me to manage dependencies, time, resources, costs and report on them. It allows me to model the impact of resource or time changes, see where the critical path is and plan around risks.In other words, it’s much more than a Gantt chart generator.
Sheetplanner looks like more of a generalised information and task management tool, and I think it fulfil a very different role from Merlin. As an example, I’ll use Merlin to manage and track my project(s), but I’d use Sheetplanner to manage/track my own tasks and the information related to them. I’m not going to put. mix of work and personal tasks into Merlin, but I might into SP.
