I think there's a whole lot of us out here waiting for RC3 to hit the streets as we are stuck on RC2c, aren't game to risk the destruction and havoc we could easily create on our own systems.

I've thought about upgrading to the nightly builds, but keep on hearing about the imminent release of RC3, and think that I should wait for RC3.

I have heard the major sticking point of RC3 is that the planned upgrade script still isn't ready to be included yet.

We call in to see threads entitled "How to upgrade to nightly build", and hope that someone has included the details of what we need to do to upgrade, but find nothing.

I would personally like to help with debugging/documentation of the upgrading, but at the point of time the gap between RC2c and RC3 is extremely large, and without some form of documention (other than the current vague lists of changes done since the previous nightly build and dozens of those to sort through too ! ).
