Beta Fork Questions

When creating a beta fork, do skill specializations carry over? And if so, are they counted against the skill cap of 60? Do beta forks retain the rep of their originating ego?

I would say:

I would say: Yes, skill specializations carry. No, they do not count against the skill cap. WRT Rep, since Betas are ostensibly acting on the original's behalf, yes. But then, I also say that, after forking, two forks share a reputation for about six months, until they're sufficiently diverged for most people to see them as different folks. So if your players are forking, bear in mind that a fork might beat them to the punch in calling on a big favor.
