Release Candidate 2.5 for Scientific Linux 5.4 has been released
for both i386 and x86_64.

This is essentially the release.  All the release notes say it is the 
release, everything is in the correct place, and we don't plan on 
changing anything unless there is a real show stopper.

So this is your final chance to test.  If there isn't a real show 
stopper, then tomorrow we will change the 5x link to point to this, and 
we will officially announce the release of Scientific Linux 5.4
