Apparently the developers are having problems removing the last of
the major bugs from the software. This is the first time I remember they
needed 9 release candidates or more to do this. After RC9 has been out
for a while, they will look at the feedback to see if there are any
"show stoppers". If no "show stoppers" have been found, RC will become
3.3.0. If some are found, RC10 will be issued, and the process starts
all over again. So, there is no definite date for the 3.3.0 release.
