All,
The third release candidate of 6.0 is now available for download and
testing. 6.0-RC3 (Release Candidate #3) is a pre-release of 6.0, and we
hope that the 6.0 final release will follow closely in its footsteps.
We'd appreciate additional testers to help us verify no additional major
bugs or issues exist in the 6.0 codebase. Over the last few months, our
team of volunteer developers has been diligently resolving known major
issues that stand in the way of a 6.0 final release. We believe the 6.0
release is nearly production-ready, but could use your help in verifying
there's nothing we've overlooked.

Assuming our final tests validate the stability of 6.0-RC3, we
anticipate that the 6.0 final release will be made available within the
next few weeks (i.e. mid-to-late September).
If you notice any bugs or issues with 6.0-RC3, please report them
immediately to our issue tracker
(https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS). As always, we are also
available to answer questions on our DSpace Tech Support list
(https://groups.google.com/d/forum/dspace-tech) or #dspace IRC
(https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/IRC).
Thanks!
Tim
