Can we get word from IPS if we will go from RC1 to final?

It seems like you guys have made a VERY stable RC1 and you must be praised for that accomplishment.

I also hope there will not be a RC2 version first ... I can't wait to upgrade my live board -_-

I'd like to think there is going to be an RC 2, otherwise, why would they have an RC 1 and not just RC?

With an RC2, i would guess sometime in early December.

They're still fixing bugs in RC1, so i can't imagine they'll skip right to final

I wouldn't mind a final!

I don't think RC1 is that stable. I expect an RC2.

i expect a RC2 in the next few days

and final will be out before December, i would say around Nov 8th(just my guess)

I think they would release something nice by november

I'd like to think there is going to be an RC 2, otherwise, why would they have an RC 1 and not just RC?

Just because it has RC1 and not RC doesn't mean there is going to be multiple versions of the RC, lol...

I belive there will be a RC2 and then a quick Final realease to follow.

All I know is that I can't wait!

As it says in the official announcement:

"You will be able to upgrade from 2.2 RC 1 to future releases when available."

i expect a RC2 in the next few days

and final will be out before December, i would say around Nov 8th(just my guess)

Amen

IF there is a need for RC2, I doubt it will be out in a few days. If they get a release ready again within the next week, it would most likely be Final. Because for a release to come that soon after RC1 release, there couldnt be that much fixed in it. I guess it's always possible just to be totally safe that they would release RC2 even if it only had a few RC1 fixes, but I would doubt it.

I would like to see a RC2 so people who have reported issues can confirm they have indeed been fixed. It's also good development practice to let as many people as possible test the supposed final version for a week or so before making it final, just in case there are any outstanding issues.

Please do not rush 2.2 final out the door, only to release a bug fix version a few days later (as was the case with vB recently)
