Thanks, Kevin. In my view, a beta release is fine as a dependency for a GS RC or even a full release. Anything that is a release and not a snapshot has a well-defined and repeatable content. A beta release is perfectly respectable. 
Not to mention that we (and I) made stable releases including GS 2.3.2 against my dodgy hand-rolled ad-hoc GWC milestone. Your beta release is much better! Once the GWC team goes to full release, we will be happy to update later GS releases to use it.
Kind regards,
Ben.

Yeah, the only change since I released the 1.5 beta is an update to the
release instructions. Given that, I suppose an RC1 release isn't
strictly necessary as it would be nothing but making a bunch of jar
files with a different version number, and that one modified text
file. I'm happy to leave it as beta until we're ready to do a final
release if everyone's OK with the GS RC having a dependency that's "beta".

Deploy GeoTools to maven, and then Kevin can make GWC, and just hold
off announcing GeoTools until we have an all clear.
Kevin I am not sure anything has changed in GeoWebCache recently?

I'll make sure to be around this weekend to do the corresponding
GWC RC as well.
Oh good, right, forgot about it. I'll try to complete GeoTools
first then, it's all you
need to make a GWC release, yes?
Cheers
