The other day the beta 2 disks were released to the testers team. Thanks to the wonderful feedback by the testers for beta 1, we were able to get a lot of things fixed. Fabio is back from his vacation and so it took him a bit to get through all the emails. There is still a few known issues and will hopefully get addressed in 5.0 RC1. We plan to move quickly with beta 2 to RC1 and hopefully than we will get a Final 5.0 in two weeks. No date for release set yet, but keep your eyes out for it in couple weeks. Beta two brought us kernel 2.6.31 and drivers, we also hit a delay due to the libxcb upgrade. This made for a lot of packages to be rebuilt. We’ve also updated the packages to latest in repo 5.
