"It could make strong modifications to your MySite host. And unfortunately, these changes are not reversible.”

-NGeorgeault

"I heard from some good sources it will come once yammer is integrated. They didn't want to implement it in RTM, because it would have made the process of migrating my sites > yammer more complicated with it enabled."

-Vlad Catrinescu

“There is no formal announcement by Microsoft, but yes Education Services was a beta feature, although the bits for the feature are in the RTM build of SharePoint (but again, the feature itself is not RTM). Education Services in SharePoint 2013 should not be used.”

- Trevor Seward
