We've definitely made a lot of progress in the past eight months, and several of the issues mentioned in your blog post are already fixed while others will be easier to achieve through local customizations than they used to be.  And, of course, some are probably still going to be problems -- but feel free to add tickets to our JIRA if you have any problems that aren't already on our radar (http://www.vufind.org/jira).

We don't have an official date for RC2 yet, but I expect we'll be setting one before too much longer -- recent developments have been moving us a lot closer to stability than we've been in a while.  I think the code should be ready before the end of the year, but please don't take that as a binding promise just yet -- software release dates are always tricky things, and I don't want to make any premature claims.  Stay tuned for an official announcement!
