[slurm-users] Slurm release candidate version 21.08.0rc1 available for testing

[Tim Wickberg]

We are pleased to announce the availability of Slurm release candidate 
version 21.08.0rc1.

This is the first release candidate version of the upcoming 21.08 
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 release candidate, please report 
them through https://bugs.schedmd.com against the 21.08.x version and we 
will address them before the first production 21.08.0 release is made.

Please note that the release candidates are not intended for production 
use. Barring any late-discovered issues, the state file formats should 
not change between now and 21.08.0 and are considered frozen at this 
time for the 21.08 release.

A preview of the updated documentation can be found at

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