Manfred, Lets hold off on the RC candidate until this weekend. It will give us a few more days to take on the important issues. Since so much work goes into a release lets try and fix all of the major outstanding issues we can by that time.
Also, I would suggest doing TCK testing late next week after the RC has been out for a few days. No sense in doing all of that work until the users have also tested since we may need a second RC. If you don't mind testing twice then no worries though. sean On 9/27/05, Manfred Geiler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > As mentioned on friday I prefer #3 anyway.
