Thanks everyone for clarifying. Maybe it was just me, but I wasn't aware that we were going to release the RCs for distribution, hence my confusion about all the current voting rounds we are going through. I thought the RCs were just intended for the ESME community to do smoke/stress tests before the actual release and that we would have a formal vote when we agreed that an RC is technically fit for a release. But I have been a bit busy at work these days, so I guess I just missed the RC vs point-release discussion on the list, my bad.
