Is there any documentation of the 'process' involved in putting together the "release candidate" What goes in, what is delayed, what machines are used, what compilers (consistent throughout all the rpms?), etc? Are there any tools used to check compatibility (tinderbox?) before inclusion, any theory? Or is it just a slice of rawhide torn off and put into iso images? BobG
