I would think a new beta candidate will be useful to the community for testing given the mega-merge of changes from trunk to 10.2 branch since the last beta and that the official release candidate is expected on a later date1) Instead of a release candidate, I could build a new beta candidate tomorrow (Friday August 25).
It would also be desirable if the documentation of the newer feature (for example: DERBY-1636, DERBY-1655, DERBY-1747) were also
available by this beta refresh. -Rajesh
