The next release candidate for WordPress 6.0 is now available! 

WordPress 6.0 is scheduled for release on May 24th, 2022 – just two weeks from today.

“Release Candidate” means that this version of WordPress is ready for release! Since the WordPress ecosystem includes thousands of plugins and themes, it is important that everyone within the WordPress community check to see if anything was missed along the way. That means the project would love your help.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed towards testing and logging issues to help make WordPress 6.0 stable (and awesome). WordPress still needs your help testing, especially theme and plugin developers.

Since the RC1 release on May 3rd, 2022, there have been approximately 40 issues resolved in Gutenberg and Trac.
