Hello all,

You can find a release candidate 2 for OpenSC version 0.27.0 for testing on
Github:

https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC/releases/tag/0.27.0-rc2

The changes include the new PKCS#11 3.2 support in the tools and
infrastructure,
streamlined support for Edwards and Montgomery curves and OS-level FIPS mode
detection. The MacOS installers are now notarized and signed with a new key
thanks
to Raul Metsma.

Note, that since RC1, we now use the Windows installers built by GitHub
Actions instead of AppVeyor. Please, give them a try!

For the full changelog, please refer to NEWS file:
https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC/blob/master/NEWS

We are looking forward to your feedback, which we may discuss via this
mailing list or GitHub:
https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC/issues/3526

Advices for systematic testing can be found here:
https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC/wiki/Smart-Card-Release-Testing

We would like to release the final version in a few weeks.
