[Qemu-devel] [ANNOUNCE] QEMU 4.0.0-rc3 is now available

[Michael Roth]

Hello,

On behalf of the QEMU Team, I'd like to announce the availability of the
fourth release candidate for the QEMU 4.0 release.  This release is meant
for testing purposes and should not be used in a production environment.

A note from the maintainer:

  If no release-critical bugs are reported with this release
  candidate, then we plan to release with no further changes
  on the 16th April. If we need to roll an rc4 then we'll do
  that on the 16th, with final 4.0.0 release on the 23rd.

You can help improve the quality of the QEMU 4.0 release by testing this
release and reporting bugs on Launchpad:

candidates, are available at:
