So far everything they've said is true. No confusion here. If one presumed some thing regarding the pre-announcement that wasn't specified by the announcement then one could be disappointed when that something did not materialize. I took it the announcement on face value - something is going to happen that will involve a release candidate. I've every confidence that something will. Since I know the next event is an RC drop I have nothing compelling to do in response and will enjoy a 3-day weekend. If the pre-announcement was for a new version release I'd be inclined to take my laptop along. dp _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
