My hope is 2 weeks we have added lots of regressions tests (which is still not
enough) so I'm a little bit more confident than I use to be.

Of course I will delay the release if the amount of bugs reported is too
important.

I suspect more people will test during the Week End to depending on the feedback
of this week end I may release the RC1 on monday/tuesday and then depending on
the feedback of the next week a final release could happen on next wednesday
(14th.).

Best regards,
