I don't know why it took so long. :) It's a bit sad though that an open source project keeps secrets... I found out that the tarballs were available for days now but only for maintainers of KDE packages of various distros. For example Arch Linux had RC2 binaries available in its [kde-unstable] repo since Jan 21, but no one would give a link to the tarballs used to build the sources because they are "secret". Am I the only one to find this frustrating (to say the least)?
