OpenBSD 6.3 Early Release!

OpenBSD 6.3 was slated for release on April 15th, but it's already showing up on mirrors this morning. It looks like the full package tree is available only for the most popular platforms at the moment, but the install sets for all supported architectures are live on the two mirrors I use most frequently (sonic and ftp5). I haven't checked the rest of the mirrors. Elsewhere on the Internet, I saw a number of core developers confirm the release is underway almost two weeks ahead of schedule.

I'm looking forward to using the improved install script ("Please Listen Carefully as Our Menu Options Have Recently Changed") and taking advantage of some iterative improvements to the VMM hypervisor, such as snapshots and the ability to attach ISO images to VMs.
