Hi, this is in no way meant to appear impatience but I'm going to install Qubes OS on my new laptop (Lenovo P71) and am just wondering whether it's worthwhile to install 4RC3, or wait for 4.0 to come out. Any idea on when we can expect it? If it's months, I think I'd rather install 4RC3 first, if it's quite soon I'd rather wait.
Thanks, and keep up the good work, it's awesome.
