On Monday, we created Xen 4.10 RC1 and will release a new release candidate every MONDAY, until we declare a release candidate as the final candidate and cut the Xen 4.10 release. We will also hold a Test Day every WEDNESDAY for the release candidate that was released the week prior to the Test Day starting from RC2. Note that RC’s are announced on the following mailing lists: xen-announce, xen-devel and xen-users. This means we will have Test Days on October 25th, Nov 1st, 8th, 15th and 22nd. Your testing is still valuable on other days, so please feel free to send Test Reports as outlined below at any time.

Getting, Building and Installing a Release Candidate

Release candidates are available from our git repository at
git://xenbits.xenproject.org/xen.git (tag 4.10.0-<rc>)
where <rc> is rc1, rc2, rc3, etc. and as tarball from

https://downloads.xenproject.org/release/xen/4.10.0-<rc>/xen-4.10.0-<rc>.tar.gz.sig
