+Source code and pkgs for MacPorts 2.10.0-rc1 are now
+[available][1]. Testing of either of these install methods is helpful.
+
+Be prepared to encounter bugs. As always, having a recent backup would
+be wise. Please [report][2] any bugs that you find (after first [searching
+Trac][3], of course!)
+
+If no show-stopping bugs are found in the next few days, this will
+become the 2.10.0 release.
+
+There are a large number of changes in this release. See the [ChangeLog][4]
+for a list of most of the major ones. You may like to focus your
+testing on the new features in that list, as well as your normal usage.
+
+Changes since beta2 are:
+ * Version number only.
