I cut a set of CD images (2.0beta4) as soon as the push rsync finished 
(cdimage.debian.org) but it doesn't matter, because I was planning to do at 
least another around Tuesday, and I may make that Monday and Wednesday if 
people find significant problems.

Hopefully we'll then be able to do some on Thursday that we can be confident 
about for the release deadline.

People running mirrors and vendors wanting to produce official CD sets should 
get in touch with me for rsync access to the images.

I'm going to be away for the rest of the weekend, but I'll sort out passwords 
when i get back.

Cheers, Phil.
