Actually this is such a common problem, I wonder if we can somehow pool
resources and publish this information. It would be advantageous to
have a web page somewhere that presented the collected testing of
people testing a new release, through the RC and release process, along
with some idea of what they've compiled/installed/run on it.
Unfortunately, I have no idea of how to accomplish this lofty goal, so
I'll just toss it in here and let all the great minds here grind away
on it.
