By the time you get to an RC1 release it's expected that barring any

I honestly don't know what the fuss is:
DP or RC, who cares, after all as long as they are numbered reasonably
sequentially we know
that they are leading up to a 'Full' release (which, after all, means
the start of another SDLC).
I'm working with 8.1.4 at the moment and having lots of fun wit
In fact there have been 54 DP releases since we went open source in April 2013
- which is pretty much 1 per month on average since.
So, not rare at all - quite common, one might say.

P.S. If someone wants to check my math - then please do. The necessary
information is easily grokable fro

Microsoft don't count ME or Vista. They were bug test releases that proved
to be more buggy than the bugs they were claiming to repair, so that

It's unlikely that there will be an 8.2.0 release unless they add in the
Obj-C/Java stuff into v8. Version numbers have been described in the past.
