Artifacts for preflight testing are available:
http://ares.boundlessgeo.com/geoserver/release/2.4.8

Initial testing:

1) Mac DMG was created - yay! Testing worked fine, unable to select other
formats in layer preview (sigh)
2) Windows 7 testing. Installed with manual option, short cut does not work
(class not found on startup). Tried running startup.bat via CMD failed due
to data director permission. Tried running startup.bat via CMD "as
administrator" and it worked! Tested layer preview in IE and got my first
clue about layer-preview formats - IE "prevented" the application from
opening a pop-up. Allowing popups for localhost:8080 restored the layer
preview functionality.

So good enough, maintenance release is not downloaded very much anyways,
going to kick it out the door.
