The second release candidate of 5.2.7 was just released for testing  
and can be downloaded here:

http://downloads.php.net/ilia/php-5.2.7RC2.tar.bz2 (md5sum:  
722b69b8a51050aa25c1e6184e4e8d0e)

The Windows binaries should become available shortly as well at the  
following URL: http://windows.php.net/qa/. There were quite a number  
of changes since RC1, so I guess everyone has been playing a bit of a  
catch-up with their patches. I think we probably will try for another  
RC next week and if all is well then move onto the files. As usual  
please test this release and report any bugs that you may find.

Could you please announce your plans for 5.2.7? I've some things to 
merge but hadn't found the time yet to do so.

I really think we should keep all the QA builds in one spot, where we 
had them before. Otherwise we'll end up with linux.php.net/qa, 
mac.php.net/qa. Just uploading the images to whatever dir we have is not 
really hard to do. I feel the same for snaps, they should all be in one 
place - at snaps.php.net.

regards,
Derick

The big difference is that we do not provide binaries for the
platforms you listed here. It is simply much easier for us to have
them there as the tests, signature (etc.) procedures are the same.

Ok. The next RC is planned for next Thursday, so if at all possible  
please get your patches in by then.
