Red Hat 9?

[Stringent]

Just got this from Red Hat. I thought 8.1 was the next release ...

Code:

We've recently made some changes to Red Hat Network based on survey data 
that we received from you.  We found that two items of extreme interest 
to our users are early release of Red Hat Linux ISOs and improved 
technical support. 

Beginning March 31st, paid subscribers to Red Hat Network will have 
access to Red Hat Linux 9 ISOs - a full week before retail store and Red 
Hat FTP availability.  Also, Red Hat Network subscribers will receive 
dedicated Red Hat Network Technical Support.  For more information about 
the benefits of being a Red Hat Network Subscriber, go to:

Thanks again for using Red Hat Linux.  We appreciate any and all 
feedback from our users and hope you continue to enjoy your 
complimentary account with Red Hat Network.  If you would like to

Anyone managed to snag it yet?

Its apparently available for download (with no support) from RedHat, but I have yet to confirm that. It has also shipped with no ACL's, but future editions will have that feature as the problem was discovered.
