Hi FreeBSD -STABLE users, I have just posted the schedule for FreeBSD 13.4-RELEASE to the FreeBSD website. It will be roughly the same as the schedule for 13.3-RELEASE plus six months, except that this time I'm going to plan on having just one Release Candidate rather than listing 3 on the schedule and finding that I only needed one. 13.4-RELEASE schedule: ports quarterly branch: July 1, 2024 reminder email: July 8, 2024 stable/13 slush: July 19, 2024 doc/ tree slush: July 26, 2024 releng/13.4 branch: August 2, 2024 BETA1 build starts: August 2, 2024 BETA2 build starts: August 9, 2024 doc/ tree tag: August 9, 2024 BETA3 build starts: August 16, 2024 ports package builds: TBD (Between August 9 and 23) RC1 build starts: August 23, 2024 RELEASE build starts: August 30, 2024 RELEASE announcement: September 3, 2024 13.3-RELEASE EoL: December 31, 2024 13.* EoL: January 31, 2026 Since we're fairly late in the 13.x branch and it has only been 6 months since we did 13.3-RELEASE, I'm hoping this release will go smoothly; but this will rely on users testing the BETAs. (In particular, don't wait until -RC1 to test because at that point we'll only hold the release for something truly critical.) -- Colin Percival FreeBSD Release Engineering Lead & EC2 platform maintainer Founder, Tarsnap | www.tarsnap.com | Online backups for the truly paranoid
