Stewart Smith23432642019-04-05 16:40:43 +1100[diff] [blame^]1Release Notes for OpenPower Firmware v2.3-rc2
2=============================================
3
4op-build v2.3-rc2 was released on Friday April 5th, 2019. It will become the new stable release of
5op-build, following on from v2.2, first released on March 9th, 2019.
6
7The op-build v2.3 release cycle is a uniquely shorter one as we’ve been working on getting ready to
8have a more reliably predictable release schedule going for future releases.
9
10op-build v2.3-rc2 contains all the fixes as of op-build v2.0.15, and we expect to continue to do
11stable 2.0.y releases of v2.0 into the forseeable future.
12
13Please note that this is a RELEASE CANDIDATE and not the final v2.3 release. We expect to do a final
14v2.3 tagged release early April 2019. Please test this release candidate heavily!
