[Qemu-devel] [ANNOUNCE] QEMU 2.10.0-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 2.10 release.  This release is meant
for testing purposes and should not be used in a production environment.

  http://download.qemu-project.org/qemu-2.10.0-rc4.tar.xz

A note from the maintainer:

  This release contains last minute fixes for some bugs affecting
  PowerPC hosts and also for bugs in the QEMU network block device code.
  Any final testing should therefore be concentrated on these areas.
  We plan to make the final release of QEMU 2.10 on Wednesday 30th
  August.
  
  (30th August happens to be my birthday, but this is purely
  coincidental :-))

You can help improve the quality of the QEMU 2.10 release by testing this
release and reporting bugs on Launchpad:
