FreeBSD 11.0-RC2 ships with various bug fixes, several networking related changes, Clang compiler fixes, and other updates.

FreeBSD 11.0 is bringing updated KMS drivers, Linux binary compatibility layer improvements, UEFI improvements, Bhyve virtualization improvements, and a plethora of other work. Those not yet familiar with FreeBSD 11 can see the what's new guide.

FreeBSD 11.0 is currently scheduled to be released on 9 September, but given this RC2 release was delayed by five days, we may see a delay in RC3 and in turn the final release. Nevertheless, FreeBSD 11.0 should be able to comfortably make it out in September.
