Arch doesn't usually put beta or rc packages in the repos.

That really does not matter on a rolling release distro.  Unless there is something in the new kernel that allows your computer to actually work...

I hope it doesn't get included until most bugs are ironed out. (-rc stands for a reason...)

I guess the plus side of having 2.6.25 on the next ISO is because ext4 could be included.

Can you upgrade to ext4 without a format? I've read that they are backwards compatible.

Check out this interview on the Fedora project site: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Interviews/EricSandeen. As some people have suggested, whether or not it is better is a matter of preference. I'd imagine for most people it makes little difference but ext4 definitely brings some new things to the table.

Real quick: the autolinker saw that ending period as part of the url.
