A vote on RC1 was also taken to the Incubator PMC, though that has yet to go anywhere (it's only garnered one vote so far). Since then a few bugs have been addressed, the most noteworthy being https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-418. There have also been some changes that will hopefully result in more IPMC votes for this and future releases (see CASSANDRA-429, CASSANDRA-371, CASSANDRA-415, and CASSANDRA-428).
