I don't think we ever came up with a better time than before RC, though I think we could do it a little earlier in beta if people were not holding patches during that period. It is the beta patching folks that we have the most control over. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026
