+Release Notes for OpenPower Firmware v2.3-rc2
+=============================================
+
+op-build v2.3-rc2 was released on Friday April 5th, 2019. It will become the new stable release of
+op-build, following on from v2.2, first released on March 9th, 2019.
+
+The op-build v2.3 release cycle is a uniquely shorter one as we’ve been working on getting ready to
+have a more reliably predictable release schedule going for future releases.
+
+op-build v2.3-rc2 contains all the fixes as of op-build v2.0.15, and we expect to continue to do
+stable 2.0.y releases of v2.0 into the forseeable future.
+
+Please note that this is a RELEASE CANDIDATE and not the final v2.3 release. We expect to do a final
+v2.3 tagged release early April 2019. Please test this release candidate heavily!
+
+Known Bugs
+----------
+
+We have one known bug (carried over from rc1) that are currently release blockers for the final
+v2.3.
+
+-  There exists a bug where Control-C behaviour in the petitboot shell has changed, which may cause
+   some test scripts to get confused.
+
+Fixed Bugs
+----------
+
+One of the two bugs listed in “known bugs” for rc1 has been fixed:
+
+-  There exists a bug where boot devices *may* not show up in petitboot until “Rescan Devices” is
+   selected.
