Hi,

this is great news! Will there be an upgrade path from release
candidates to the final release or is this up to the user?

Are there any wip release notes, so that one knows what is new, was
fixed and what to expect? As this release cycle was quite long, it's
hard to scan through the whole git log.

Thanks and keep up the good work.

Regards
Patrick
