For every RC we already send an e-mail to about 12 projects asking them to test their code against the release and let us know of any issues that come up. If you want to be part of this group ask Lukas to add you to the wiki page that can be found here: http://oss.backendmedia.com/PhP5yz

I've just added the following comment, which addresses part of the problem:
--------------------
Somewhere between the RC and the release, the release manager should
receive email confirmation from a number of volunteers that the RC has
been tested not only with 'make test', but on real world applications such
as the volunteers' own code and high profile applications such as
phpMyAdmin, SquirrelMail and so on.

The RC should not become a release until such confirmation is received.
--------------------

I hereby volunteer to do my code, phpMyAdmin and SquirrelMail for php5 RCs.

Clearly, for this to have maximum impact we need to cover as many
applications, platforms and SAPIs as possible.
