[wp-hackers] WordPress 3.0.3

[Mitch Canter]

On a bit of a related subject, I have a question.  Is there an online resource with the step-by-step of (or could someone enlighten the process of) how a Security Release rolls out from start to finish? There are a lot of users that are questioning the need for 2 releases in such a short time and having a detailed explanation (I think) would serve as a fantastic resource as to the why (and not just to "here's a new release go download it" which may offput some users).
