RPM 5.0b2 was released today.
Find it under: http://rpm5.org/files/rpm/rpm-5.0/

This release is part of the RPM 5 release engineering BETA phase and
is stable enough to be test-driven in real packaging environments.
Please give it a try on as much different platforms and send the RPM 5
developers your feedback.

But please notice that RPM 5 it is *NOT* a 100% compatible drop-in
replacement for RPM 4, so if you want to test-drive it you might have to
at least partly adjust your packaging environment first.
