Here is a proposed release schedule for v27.0, the next major release of Bitcoin Core. Dates roughly chosen as discussed in the most recent IRC meeting.

2024-02-01 ✔️

  • Open Transifex translations for v27.0
  • Soft translation string freeze (no large or non-critical string changes until release)
  • Finalize and close translations for v25.0

2024-02-12 ✔️

  • Feature freeze (bug fixes only until release)
  • Translation string freeze (no more source language changes until release)

2024-03-04 ✔️

2024-04-02 🚧

  • Release v27.0 (aim).
  • Not the 1st, because we aren't going to release on "April Fools Day".

If any specific dates are a problem for you, please leave a comment.

@levantah thanks, however we'll refrain from linking to sources other than our own website.

@levantah Contributions are certainly welcome and desired, you can take a look at any of the open issues, particularly ones tagged as "Good first issue". However, as Bitcoin Core is security software, we only want to link to our own official sources for releases. While we appreciate the gesture you did by hosting a mirror of the release, it is still something we cannot point people to, and for the safety of our users, the comment is removed. While I don't doubt that you are only trying to help, what you linked to was on an unknown website, hosted on unknown infrastructure, run by an unknown person.
