I keep seeing, "Only 2 days to go!" when it comes to the release of 12.3.
But I also know that the Gold is made available for downloading BEFORE the 'official' release. This has been so in the past.
So, where is 12.3 Gold available for download?
Now, come on, give out with the info..... :-) .

Basil,
Anyone running 12.3 rc1 or rc2 can just "zypper dup" to get the latest versions. If you didn't bother to test even those releases, why should anyone give you details about gold?
You mean that is all there is to it to get my RC2 to get the Midas touch and become Gold?
Ok, doing so in the next few minutes :-) .
Basil, If you want to be sure, the RC1 and RC2 releases should have used the 12.3 repo as pre-populated with the relevant packages. Pre-release, you need to ensure you have the "refresh" flag set to true so that you get any updated packages as compiles are done on the backend. Once the release is formal, you can change that to refresh false because the repo is locked in stone. Coolo announced a couple of days ago, that he had stopped all official 12.3 builds, so once the 12.3 repo's got those final builds and pushed them out to the mirrors the process was done. Personally I'll leave mine set to refresh for another few days just in case I somehow still have an out of date package. (Not sure if that can happen or not).
