La fase in cui un software è etichettato come Release Candidate è quella immediatamente precedente al rilascio ufficiale della nuova versione.
Vediamo le novità che ci attendono tra pochi giorni.

Rendere disponibili le versioni RC dei software permette di testare ulteriormente il software prima del rilascio ufficiale. Per questo motivo la verisone finale potrebbe contenere altri bugfix o addirittura nuove funzionalità e supporto per nuove fotocamere.
