To see the current releases/public betas watch the official announcement thread. Just copying to information to a different, already pretty cluttered thread is useless.
Considering that this is a thread about 2.4.2 it would seem that that it would not be totally inappropriate to add that information here as well. More importantly, I am with those who don't appreciate moderators interfering with posts unless what is said is illegal or over the top (like racial slurs etc.) If users want to come to this "pretty cluttered thread" and add to it, why would that bother any one? If people don't, then the thread will drop off but we don't really need a moderator to decide this for us!
