I'd like to thank Marcel Moolenaar for providing the ia64 bits and Takahashi Yoshihiro for proving the pc98 bits. The plan going forward is to cut an RC3 in early January, followed by 5.0-RELEASE a week later. This will hopefully allow enough time to finish all of the outstanding TODO items and test the new dual UFS1/UFS2 bootblocks before release. The TODO list is at http://www.freebsd.org/releases/todo.html and has been updated with several new items. We are coming down to the wire for 5.0 and any help with the remaining items would be greatly appreciated. Once again, thanks to everyone who helped with RC2, and I encourage everyone to download and test it.
