I tested the latest package. It looks OK, except few things.

1. Samples still have Danushka's home location as the default home 
location. This should be the default install location of WSF/C, 
/opt/wso2/wsfc/
2. Should the README.SAMPLES be inside samples folder or root folder? I 
think it should be in root folder. At the moment it is inside samples 
folder.
3. Should not the README have something on how to get stuff up and 
running after installation?
4. Docs folder is empty

Please raise Jira issues on all the above and lets fix them for the beta 
release.

Lets go ahead and announce this release on this list and the user list. 
Make a post on the forum as well.

Thanks,
Samisa...
