Date: Tuesday, February 10, 2009 - 11:43 pm

On behalf of the NetBSD Release Engineering team, I am proud to announce

that the second release candidate of NetBSD 5.0 is now available for

download.


Since RC1, 103 tickets were pulled up.  Interested readers can find the

details of these tickets in src/doc/CHANGES-5.0.  RC2 represents a great

deal of progress over RC1, but with that amount of change, increased

time for testing is required.  To put it bluntly, there will definitely

be a third release candidate.  We are aware of a number of

release-blocking issues, but it is important that we get a jump on

testing the many changes made since RC1.


Binaries of RC2 can be downloaded from


ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-5-0-RC2/


Of course, those already tracking the netbsd-5 branch by source should

continue to to so, and the netbsd-5-0-RC2 tag is available if you prefer

to check out the RC2 sources specifically.


I'd like to thank all those who have helped so far in testing and

providing feedback.  Please keep up the good work, it is very much

appreciated!


Enjoy,

Soren
