And here I thought RC's were milestones too ;)

Nope that is not always true IMO - what they want is continuous integration and 
for that a stable staging url is rather important.

True, doing full product builds you want exact bits, but that is not the only 
game in town.

We do download mirrors of plugins to avoid these kind of things but for some of 
our default builds we share with the community we point to public urls so
they get latest bits instead of relying on whatever last update we made to our 
mirror.
