On behalf of the NetBSD Release Engineering team, I am proud to announce that the first release candidate of NetBSD 5.0 is now available for download. Those of you who have been paying close attention will have noticed that RC1 was tagged on Sunday. A few hiccups delayed the availability of binaries, but they can now be downloaded from ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-5-0-RC1/ Those of you who prefer to build from source can continue to follow the netbsd-5 branch, but the netbsd-5-0-RC1 tag is available as well. A second release candidate is expected to surface between at an undetermined time between now and the 8th of February. Please help us test this and any upcoming release candidates as much as possible. Remember, any feedback is good feedback. Enjoy, Soren
