[Qemu-devel] [ANNOUNCE] QEMU 2.11.0-rc4 is now available

[Michael Roth]

Hello,

On behalf of the QEMU Team, I'd like to announce the availability of the
fifth release candidate for the QEMU 2.11 release.  This release is meant
for testing purposes and should not be used in a production environment.

A note from the maintainer:

  Unfortunately we had to have another release candidate to fix
  some final bugs. These fix crashes and other issues for
  virtio, vhost, and PPC guests. We now expect to be able to
  make the final release of 2.11.0 in a week, on the 12th December.

You can help improve the quality of the QEMU 2.11 release by testing this
release and reporting bugs on Launchpad:

candidates, are available at:
