The second release candidate of the 0.4 series is available for download from the usual place <http://julialang.org/downloads/>. Please test extensively, report issues to the issue tracker <https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues> for base Julia problems, and report issues with packages to their respective issue trackers. The 0.4 series will undergo a period of stabilization in anticipation of a final release as soon as feasible, while new breaking development will continue to occur on the master branch which will target a 0.5 release further down the line.
Of special note is the fact that this change <https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/13148> has changed the embedding API, those of you special enough to be using that API, please take note when testing against RC2. I had originally tried to send this out to julia-news, but it looks like forwarding as we had it setup doesn't work quite right. -E
