Regarding the proposed RC1:
 1) we just managed to get Beta3 out the door last week.
 2) according to [1] "... The Beta Cycle will continue until the critical products are
    determined to be functional (the "minimum requirements"). The progress can be seen [2]..."

So I think we'll probably have to call the next release Beta4.
Comments?
