release-team Digest, Vol 37, Issue 15

[lnas90 lnas90]

Since the QT 4.6.1 was released yesterday, it might be wiser to release a RC3?
Seems that most problems will be solved with this new version of qt,
but to be sure and liberate a mature product, I think it would be an
interesting RC3 on 3 February to launch the SC KDE 4.4 Final on 16
February.
The dates that I am not too sure, but the need for a new RC3 think it's valid.
