Hi,

The first release candidate for Emacs 30.1, the extensible text
editor, is now available at:

  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-30.1-rc1.tar.xz

The tarball is signed.  You can find the PGP signature file at:

  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-30.1-rc1.tar.xz.sig

Please give it as much testing as you can.  If no problems are
reported, this will become Emacs 30.1 this Sunday.

If you encounter any problems building or using Emacs, please send a
detailed report to [email protected] (preferably via M-x
report-emacs-bug).

Thanks for your help in testing Emacs!
