I sofar only had uploaded the ISO images.  Per your suggestion I am
uploading the ftp bits (these include the floppy images etc) at the moment.

It will take an hour or 2 to upload to ftp-master, and then some time
for the ftp-mirrors to pick it up from there (don't know how often the
mirrors do their sync to ftp-master).

Please let me know how it goes once the stuff is available.  Oh, this is
RC2 that I am uploading right now, not RC1.
