Yes.  I had intended to collect changed packages together as I had done 
for RC1.  Just now got around to it, now just have to wait a day for the 
mirrrors to catch it.  Look for 3.0-RC2/en/upgrade/ to appear, download 
everything and install.  Here is the README included:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
These are the changed packages between RC2 and 3.0 [fixed].  Instead of
downloading the entire set you can just download these and upgrade.

Some packages have the same version so a forced install will be required,
but it is not clear the packages have much in the way of real differences.
Emacs and grub were built with "--define '_host i386-redhat-linux'" and
filesystem was built with "--define '__debug_package 0'" per Michael
Reddinger to cure slight differences in the files produced vs RHEL3.

And here is the list of packages, so the impatient can just grab the 
individual files from the 3.0 tree:
