Re: Core 199 Feedback

[Michael Tremer <michael.tremer@ipfire.org>]

Hello Stefan,

Thank you for the feedback.

The testing release announcement is just going out now:

  https://www.ipfire.org/blog/ipfire-2-29-core-update-199-is-available-for-testing

So far, I am not aware of any regressions, but we shall see this very soon when we have some more feedback from the community.

I was hopefully to have another update in testing before Christmas, but I suppose the timeline does not allow this. So we should still ensure that we are able to release this well before Christmas so that we don’t give admins a last-minute update job.

So, please, test, test, test!

-Michael
