[OpenLayers-Dev] When to do the next RC?

[Christopher Schmidt]

We have closed three bugs since our RC1 yesterday morning:

#1477
    VML renderer draws features in the upperleft corner of the map pane
    Fix: change VML namespace to 'olv' instead of 'v', which conflicts
      with existing applications.
#1479
    Popup.FramedCloud reports error in setContentHTML
    Fix: Don't run createBlocks or updateBlocks unless relativePosition
      is set. 
#1480
    Handler Hover causes exceptions on Firefox/Windows
    Fix: Don't call hasOwnProperty on window.Event.

It is my belief that none of these are likely to affect other
functionality. It is also my belief that a few more days of testing will
likely turn up more bugs.

At this time, I believe that we should hold off on another RC until
Friday, to allow more bug reports to come in. If we do not have any
additional bug reports at that time, we will do another RC with the
current fixes pulled into 2.6. (This saves the time/effort of kicking
out another RC, announcement email, etc. having people update their
applications and so on.)

Current plan of action: RC2 Friday morning assuming no further issues.
