You mean RC1? Yes, RC1 is in contrib since yesterday afternoon. I have
just been doing some tests, and there are still some issues ...

Quoting Gerald Carter:
"but remember that this is still a non-production snapshot intended for
testing purposes. Use at your own risk."
We had to put out updates for 9.0 after we got stuck with 2.2.6pre2, and
were hit with bugs that were not fixed until 3 weeks after 9.0 shipped. I
am not prepared to do that again. I have been working with Pixel on
getting some improvements to the authenitcation setup to make provision
for joining AD etc, but I think we're running a bit tight now, and my own
recommendation is to keep samba3 in contrib, and samba-2.2.x in main.
We still have better samba3 packages than Redhat anyway ... even if they
are in contrib, and they can be installed/run in parallel with 2.2.x, and
I will build packages of 3.0.0 final for at least 9.0 and up.
We have 5 days to version freeze in cooker, and I don't think we're going
to make it, unless people have been testing samba3 without giving me
feedback, and can confirm that every samba feature has been tested in
samba3.
