Debian micronews

During release all of the automated archive maintenance services are disabled, including for stable distributions. The archive will be administered manually by an FTP master during the release process, and automated services are usually enabled on the day after release. #ReleasingDebianBookworm

Image builds of bookworm are complete and the images team continues to test them thoroughly, moving on to non-PC architectures such as s390x and mips #ReleasingDebianBookworm #Debian #Debian12

Debian takes release codenames from Pixar Toy Story movie characters, Trixie will be the development codename for Debian 13.

Debian's image building server has 88 CPUs along with 384GB of fast RAM and over 8TB SSD storage. Even so, each DVD-sized image takes approximately 90 minutes to complete and 20 are done at a time in parallel #ReleasingDebianBookworm #Debian #Debian12

While the images are built and tested, the FTP masters have been busily getting future suites ready for development so that our cycle can begin again. Say hello to Debian 13 'trixie'! #ReleasingDebianBookworm #DebianTrixie #Trixie

As more images complete, testing is well underway. You can join the testing effort - just say hi in #debian-cd on OFTC and get stuck in! #ReleasingDebianBullseye #DebianHowCanIHelp

The beautiful Emerald theme for Debian 12 'bookworm' is by Juliette Taka http://www.juliettetaka.com/ #ReleasingDebianBookworm

The first full size image, Debian 12.0 Live for amd64, has built and the other architectures are following. They will be publicly available after extensive testing #ReleasingDebianBookworm

Update: Work continues. The CD team starts and the ftpmasters are working on trixie now.

Pay close attention to the Release Notes. They have a lot of helpful information that will make upgrades and new installations go seamless. https://www.debian.org/releases/bookworm/amd64/release-notes/index.en.html
