I installed 2.6.3 and put in two future posts, upgraded to WordPress 2.7-beta2-9582 and the two posts ‘posted’ at the expected times.
Do you have a backup of your database before you upgraded? Might be interesting to look at the ‘wp_options’ table and the ‘option_name’ of ‘cron’ to see if there are any “publish_future_post” declared in the ‘value’ field.
Here’s the 2.7 values in the ‘cron’ option_name
for future posts created in 2.7 beta:
**Before any future posts:
