They will be ready soon. I said that I usually have them available
within a week after release -- release was this past weekend. However,
if you need the new features _in_production_ you would be advised to
wait until a non-beta 7.1 release.
If you are just wanting to test new features, then the first beta is
appropriate -- but, IMO, it is not appropriate to put the first beta
into a production environment -- even though this first beta appears
pretty solid (as PostgreSQL betas typically are), it is _beta_. Also,
the first beta RPMs will probably only be available for RedHat 6.2 and
RedHat 7 at first. Other distributions will be available later in the
beta cycle.
I hope to have time to work on the 7.1beta1 RPM's this week -- but my
work schedule has delayed me, thanks to some bad weather coming in to
our area.
