Todd from IEBlog yesterday posted on his MSDN blog about the future of IE7 as well as some tidbits about when to expect release candidate and final builds.
You can find this information in the comments section:
Ethan (thehotfix.net): "Hey ieblog guys, is Beta 3 the final publice Beta/RC before RTM? It would be nice to get an RC1. Thanks!"
Todd: "No, [IE7 Beta 3] is the last beta, but there will be several RC's, since the current bug list is quite large. They won't be adding new features, but they will be making an effort to reduce the memory leaks, the crashes, and the bugs that break all of the old behaviors in IE6.
Latest insider estimates are late, late Q4 or pushing until Q1 2007 to ensure stability before releasing, since it is currently far from ready."
