The third release candidate of PHP 5.1.0 is now available for testing.

The Windows binaries will be available shortly from
http://downloads.php.net/ilia/ as well.
This release incorporates a large number of fixes all across board,
ranging from Zend engine, to input processing and various extensions.
Overall, it appears that we are in a pretty good shape and I anticipate
a final RC candidate to be released no later then October 31st, 2005.
This will then be followed by 5.1.0 stable within 1-2 weeks.
During the next two weeks, I'd like to ask everyone to try out this RC
and report any bugs that you encounter.

P.S. In case you are wondering where did the RC2 go, it was an internal
release that was missing a few crucial fixes and was subsequently scrapped.
