I did cursory testing on RC6 and encountered no issues. I should be able to test a basic installation of RC7 this week. I'm no longer running a personal blog site, so I feel less confident that I would personally have encountered issues users might face. I would be more comfortable waiting a week or two for users to try to find additional issues in RC7 and release approximately 5/15, barring anything critical found.

I believe that Roller 5 is ready for release. We've gone through 6 release candidates, fixed many bugs along the way and Roller 5 is now up and running at at least three sites including blogs.apache.org, raibledesigns.com and rollerweblogger.org. RC7 release files are here: http://people.apache.org/~snoopdave/apache-roller-5.0/ Two minor changes have been made since RC6 (http://bit.ly/roller5rc6): 1) autoReconnect argument added to example MySQL URLs in Install Guide 2) Added column for template action on Edit Templates page (Templates.jsp) Please vote +1 to release and -1 if you have specific reasons why the release should not happen.
