FreeBSD 10.1 RC3 was a few days late but it's out there this Thursday afternoon. FreeBSD 10.3 takes care of an API incompatibility between 10.0-RELEASE and the earlier 10.1-RC2 state (due to the libopie library) and aside from that this third release candidate has a lot of other fixes.

FreeBSD 10.1 RC3 takes care of fixes to its UDPLite protocol, updates to the new VT driver to save/restore keyboard mode and LED states between window switching, ZFS file-system fixes, an update to OpenSSL, and various other bug/regression fixes.

More information on FreeBSD 10.1 RC3 can be found via the release announcement. Release Candidate 3 is intended to be the last RC version of FreeBSD 10.1 before going gold. The release target has been 29 October for the official FreeBSD 10.1 debut though now that RC3 was late, it's not known whether 10.1 will still make it out on time or be pushed back to perhaps early November.
