In particular our minor version RCs (as opposed to patch RCs) are *not* candidates for release. Might it make sense to move RC1-5 to Beta 4-9 and keep only one scheduled RC? Similarly, does it really make sense to have a new pre-release every two weeks? I know that "we've always done it this way", but I'm not sure I see the motivation behind it (or who the target audience for a biweekly release is). Nikita
