[slurm-announce] Slurm release candidate version 18.08.0rc1 available for testing

[Tim Wickberg]

We are pleased to announce the availability of Slurm release candidate 
version 18.08.0rc1.

This is the first release candidate version of the upcoming 18.08 
release series, and represents the end of development for the release 
cycle, and a finalization of the RPC and state file formats.

If any issues are identified with this new release candidate, please 
report them through https://bugs.schedmd.com against the 18.08.x version 
and we will address them before the first production 18.08.0 release is 
made.

Please note that the release versions are not intended for production 
use. Barring any late-discovered issues, the state file formats should 
not change between now and 18.08.0 and are considered frozen at this 
time for the 18.08 release.

Slurm can be downloaded from https://www.schedmd.com/downloads.php .
