I can't see an official announcement on this forum, so I hope I can use puma's thread to offer congratulations and thanks to the team.

Just a quick question, but I noticed something odd about the files contained within the chimaera torrent file.

Under the minimal-live listing of files it has the "beta" files dated on 9-5-21. Whereas under the installer-iso files, they do not show beta in their name. Is this correct or an oversight?

wow, i'm honestly amazed by the speed of new release, trailing debian 10 only by 2 months.

thanks for the hardwork by developers!

Are there any special upgrade instructions?

Edit: Found my own answer - instructions on upgrading from Beowulf to Chimaera are here: https://www.devuan.org/os/documentation … o-chimaera

Alrighty, still, good to know. Thank you for your patience.

At all times during her first 79 years in life she's admitted to the female pronoun, and most likely she'll continue with so, although as a modern person she wouldn't be too fussed.
And, the Chimaera 4.0 release will creep up on us when we least expect it; just a couple of t's to dot and i's to cross...

Yeah, I was really not aware of this, thanks for letting me know.

Ah, I hadn't known about this, my bad.

I am surprised I never heard of this before.
