v3.03.99-rc2

⚠️ This is a release candidate

Note that release candidates, due to the higher-than-usual amount of changes they contain, are statistically more likely to have a few quirks or bugs. Please refrain to use this version in critical production systems, unless it contains either a feature you really need, or a bugfix you've been waiting for, which may outweigh the potential drawbacks of using a release candidate.

This version will go stable in a few days if no regression is found.

💡 Highlights

A lot of documentation landed in this version, such as details about the access management, PIV keys support, SCP support, the HTTPS Proxy module. The reference of the osh-http-proxy.conf file has also been published.

The following operating systems are no longer supported, as they've been EOL for quite a while. The code may continue to work, but these are no longer part of the tests:

• OpenSUSE 15.0/15.1
