Hi Lukas,

Rock vs hard place - RC's were announced on php.net and distributed via the download page for some several months in the past. It led to a lot of user confusion, particularly when there were any binary compat breakages, and the RMs went back to simply announcing RCs on the internals list due to that.

Isn't there any half-way house on this?

Wez is still in the process of configuring things, but once its up there will be an effective way of notifying the world at large about RC's.

I was thinking more of a separate downloads page... if it's going to be announced on php.net (and it seems it is), it'd be good to keep RCs in a completely separate place at least. I know everyone's been using php.net/~ilia or php.net/~derick anyway, but would it be better to have a consistent link page _just_ for RC's, perhaps with a paragraph on it explaining exactly what a Release Candidate is?

Just my 2 sheks.
