 	(b)	 A switch called "--with-no-root-privileges" has been added for use by user installing MacPorts for their own use only. An example configure command would be "./configure --prefix=/Users/{your-user-name-here}/.macports/opt --with-no-root-privileges"
 
 
-Why a Beta Release?

+Why Release Candidate 1?
+------------------------
 
-Why not? It allows an opportunity to shake out bugs in my code before it is merged in with the trunk.
+On the 11th August, a Beta release was announced on macports-dev and a couple of bugs were shaken out. The code base for the branch is now reasonably well tested and about ready for integration into trunk where it can be tested more fully before the next point release of MacPorts. As such, on the 18th August 2008 (GSoC "pencils down" date) I termed it to be at "Release Candidate" stage.
