<p>Dear devs,</p>
<p>We are in the final sprint of releasing the feature release
version 2.3.0 and we are actively looking for testers! Ideally,
we'd like to finish the 2.3.0 version at end of February.<br>
</p>
<p>As Python 3.6 is required, support for Debian 9 and Ubuntu 16.04
had to be dropped. The list of supported operating systems is now:<br>
</p>
<ul>
<li>CentOS 7 and 8 (with EPEL activated)<br>
</li>
<li>Debian 10</li>
<li>Fedora 32, 33, Rawhide<br>
</li>
<li>openSUSE Leap 15.1, 15.2, Tumbleweed<br>
</li>
<li>Ubuntu: 18.04, 20.04, 20.10 (with universe activated)<br>
</li>
<li>Docker Engine: 18.x or higher</li>
</ul>
<p>The other major change is the split of the IntelMQ Manager into a
separate API as backend (Thanks Birger) and the switch to Python
for the latter (Thanks SUNET and Intevation).<br>
And thanks for all the numerous contributors who contributed
greatly to the majorly extended feature set, by providing code,
bug reports and other inputs.<br>
</p>
<p>For all the other changes, please have a look at the changelog
and the news file in the repository. I will give a more detailed
overview of the changes in the final 2.3.0 announcement.<br>

</p>
<p>To install the release candidate version from git, use the
"maintenance" branch or 2.3.0.rc1 Tag (or if you are looking for
more adventures, the "develop" branch,which we will use for the
development of 3.0 now).<br>
For installation via pip, use `pip install --pre intelmq`, the
version is called 2.3.0rc1 there.<br>
And for the packages, use the unstable repository:

For the new beta docker image (Thanks Sebastian Waldbauer),
install certat/intelmq-full: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
