Hi Christoph,
for 10.1 we're planning to release every RC - but I think of only
release delta ISOs to not put too much burden on this for our ftp
mirrors. We sometimes do two RCs on a day and a full public release
takes time...
The kernel is out there already, you can get the current kernel of the
day from ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/{i386,x86_64,ppc}/
The final RC is still going through some final review internally and
we're going to ship the goldmaster on the 6th of october as announced.
If there are a really small number of critical packages that are
needed (not much more than 10), then tell me the list and I upload
them tomorrow. A full list is something that we cannot do right now
but like to do for 10.1...
Cheers,
Andreas
