In general one should not assume that any Release or Release Candidate files available for download until the official announcment has gone out. (It has happened that a release had to be pulled at the last minute even after images had gone out to most mirrors, but before the official announcement.) In this particular case the official announcement for 8.0-RC2 has just been made so I guess any RC2 files found now are indeed the real deal. -- Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se
