Hello,

On behalf of the NetBSD Release Engineering Team, it is my pleasure to
announce that the first release candidate for NetBSD 4.0 has been released.

Binaries and ISO's are available from:

ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-4-0-RC1/200709011431Z/

Please view the following link for a complete list of changes/features:

ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/netbsd-4-0-RC1/200709011431Z/i386/INSTALL.html#Changes%20Between%20The%20NetBSD%203.0%20and%204.0%20Releases

If you want to build NetBSD 4.0_RC1 from source, cvs up your source
tree to "netbsd-4-0-RC1", or just along the "netbsd-4" branch.
Alternatively, you can download the source sets from the URL above,
under the source/ directory.

We expect to release a second release candidate in about two weeks.
Please help us test these release candidates as much as possible,
to make sure NetBSD 4.0 will be a solid release.

Thanks,
