NetBSD 11.0 release preparations have begun

NetBSD 11.0 release work has started with this update bringing many enhancements to its Linux emulation support, a lot of enhancements to its RISC-V architecture port, up-to-date X.Org components, PVH boot on x86 is now supported with QEMU and Firecracker, various new thermal / fan control drivers, and a variety of other hardware support improvements. NetBSD 11.0 in user-space adds support for manipulating/querying UEFI variables, many packages have been updated, and more. NetBSD 11.0 is also splitting more of their ISO images now between CD-R size and full DVD-R sets to help those installing NetBSD from a CD drive rather than a DVD drive and unable to boot from a USB stick as well.
