But this time we had so many problems during the RC phase, and if we were able to deliver at all, it was late and most of the time incomplete (i.e. no Mac OS packages). Because of that reason I'd be interested in your opinion whether we should made these RC4 packages available on the developers build tab of the download page in order to increase the chance to find potential issues before the final release date.
