shouldn't it be out today?

It's only 11:30 PST, I think they have 12.5 more hours to make the deadline.

I'll never understand UTC time

An RC not delayed beyond Nov 17th means Fedora will have achieved a 23 week cycle rather than the typical 26ish. Let's hope it has not been rushed.

repos are changed over and release file in /etc is no longer beta

going by thiis http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showpo...2&postcount=17 is F12 gonna be a disaster like F11 was?

The great way the intrusion threat was handled with the consequent delay in the F11 RC suggests that the Fedora team will indeed only release F12 RC when they are ready.

er, in what way was F11 a disaster exactly?

in what way? i think thats pretty obvious, i dont think you were onboard when F11 was first being tested Ads so you probably wouldnt know. i cant exactly remember but i do remember it not getting off to a smooth start.. i think it had a Anaconda fault in the Final release if i recall? the Beta was fine. i think there's a thread about it somewhere on this forum about the issue in Question.

In a graphical way and a filesystem way. Other than that IT WAS PEACHY!! Almost forgot. Yum and packagekit caused quite a few problems as well.

I've been here since February, for the whole F11 release. It had some anaconda regressions but I wouldn't call it a 'disaster', and it wasn't as clear-cut as something big that worked in beta being broken in final.
