Sources at Microsoft say that RC1 (release candidate 1) is to be released on September 7th (or very soon thereafter), and not in August, as rumors said it would be.
Microsoft has put build 5520 as RC1, and that build is to be released to testers and the public after the Labor Day weekend in the US, which is Septermber 4th.
What's more important, is that MS is still set to deliver the RTM (release-to-manufacturing) on October 25 of shortly after. Despite all rumors, speculations and so on, it seems that the great Vista release is still on track for its release.
Let's hope we don't have to adjust these dates, and that Vista, together with WPF, WCP and all the rest will be here in time!
