Re: [julia-users] Suggestion: Start using Julia 0.3-RC4

Is there a way for a user that downloads the RC4 binary to run the test 
suit? That would be a good way to help uncover those pesky bugs.

 One of the best things you can do for the Julia community is to start 
 using the release candidates of 0.3. Everyone will be better off if bugs 
 are found now rather than when 0.3 is released. You can help make 0.3 a 
 better release by installing one of the latest binaries and testing it out.

 This is especially important for projects like DataFrames, which have 
 fewer developer hours to spare on issues related to 0.2.

hey!

yeah no worries! when I overcame my impatience (which led me to abort the
download after 2 seconds because of the wrong name), I found out that the
package had the correct content.

cheers

 Whoops, sorry about that Florian!  There must be a small error in the .dmg
 filename, but if you open it, you see there is a Julia-0.3.0-rc4.app inside.
