The OpenAFS maintainers are happy to announce the availability of
OpenAFS 1.8.16pre1.
Source files can be accessed via the web at:

       https://www.openafs.org/release/openafs-1.8.16pre1.html

or via AFS at:

       UNIX: /afs/grand.central.org/software/candidate/openafs/1.8.16pre1/
       UNC: \\afs\grand.central.org\software\candidate\openafs\1.8.16pre1\

This release fixes a bug that had caused Linux 6.17 clients to not see
filename changes made on other clients (originally reported by Gaja
Peters); adds support for Linux mainline kernels through 7.0; and works
around an issue where client utilities (e.g., 'fs', 'bos') on macOS Apple
CPUs would crash on startup (by distributing the x86_64 version of the
utilities and relying on Rosetta for execution); as well as other minor
improvements.

Please assist the maintainers by deploying and testing this release and
providing positive or negative feedback.  Bug reports should be filed
to openafs-bugs@openafs.org ; reports of successes should be sent to
openafs-info@openafs.org.

Benjamin Kaduk
for the OpenAFS maintainers
