[Libvirt-announce] Start of freeze for libvirt-0.9.4 and availability of rc1
by Daniel Veillard
As plannned we are entering the freeze for libvirt-0.9.4 .
I have made a release candidate 1 tarball (and associated rpms) at
ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/libvirt-0.9.4-rc1.tar.gz
This seems to pass my minimal tests without problems, but please
give it a try too and report problems,
I will probably make an rc2 on Thursday or Friday, and then the
final release next Monday or Tuesday,
thanks !
Daniel
