[Xen-API] [XCP]: RC3 (the final one?) of XCP 0.5 available for testing

[Dave Scott <Dave.Scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

The third (final?) release candidate of the Xen Cloud Platform (XCP) version 
0.5 is now available for testing from:

http://www.xen.org/products/cloud_source_0.5.html

The changes since the RC2 are:
* it should now be possible to upgrade from previous RCs as well as 0.1*
* a template for 64-bit Ubuntu 10.04 now exists (previously only a 32-bit one 
was present)
* experimental templates for 32-bit and 64-bit Debian Squeeze are included

Please download and test! :)

Cheers,
Dave
