Thanks, new RC2 installed very nicely and I was up and running fresh a 
new test site in 30 mins. after announcement.
Normal routines without trying to install any extensions went smoothly 
(at least for which I had time to do something).
Then I tried to install some extensions, but because there is so few 
extensions to load at present there was not much to do.
So I installed AdoDB due I knew that DBal needs it. That went smoothly, 
OK. I tried to install DBal but it failed.
Result: whole site is unusable, You cannot add pages or contents. I'll 
wait for RC3 and then I'll do again a new fresh test site, I have time.
I've done bugs (also some others).

Best regards,
Kari
