IMHO if there's still big scary stuff out there, calling this a release candidate does us no good PR-wise, and does no good for our users. 3.0 is going to be scary enough for them as it is - cutting a release candidate that we either know is broken, or else has significant changes, is a very bad idea.

A big +1 from me for declaring it still in beta until all the 3.0 release blockers are fixed.
+1 from me as well. From what I've read about the pathname issues, I'm pretty worried about the usability of 3.0.
If you don't make a habit of borking your own filesystems with dodgy filenames, it runs fine.
Cheers, Nick.
