Why is it bad if people download the RC version and test it? Frankly, I really don't mind if slashdot or anyone else broadcasts that we have an RC tarball available. If anything it's a good thing. We don't make any guarantees about our code anyway, so whether or not we call it a GA release is just a courtesy to our users. Sheesh, this just seems like we're turning down would-be beta-testers!
Please put the tarballs back up, and please ignore the press.
