<h2>Beta Release Highlights</h2>
<h3>Fedora Workstation</h3>
<p>New in Fedora 32 Workstation Beta is EarlyOOM enabled by default. EarlyOOM enables users to more quickly recover and regain control over their system in low-memory situations with heavy swap usage. Fedora 32 Workstation Beta also enables the <em>fs.trim</em> timer by default, which improves performance and wear leveling for solid state drives.</p>
<p>Fedora 32 Workstation Beta includes GNOME 3.36, the newest release of the GNOME desktop environment. It is full of performance enhancements and improvements. GNOME 3.36 adds a Do Not Disturb button in the notifications, improved setup for parental controls and virtualization, and tweaks to Settings. For a full list of GNOME 3.36 highlights, see the <a href="https://help.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.36/">release notes</a>.</p>
<h3>Other updates</h3>
<p>Fedora 32 Beta includes updated versions of many popular packages like Ruby, Python, and Perl. It also includes version 10 of the popular GNU Compiler Collection (GCC). We also have the customary updates to underlying infrastructure software, like the GNU C Library. For a full list, see the <a href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/32/ChangeSet">Change set</a> on the Fedora Wiki.</p>
<h2>Testing needed</h2>
<p>Since this is a Beta release, we expect that you may encounter bugs or missing features. To report issues encountered during testing, contact the Fedora QA team via the mailing list or in the #fedora-qa channel on IRC Freenode. As testing progresses, common issues are tracked on the <a href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F32_bugs">Common F32 Bugs page</a>.</p>
<p>For tips on reporting a bug effectively, read <a href="https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/howto-file-a-bug/">how to file a bug</a>.</p>
<h2>What is the Beta Release?</h2>
<p>A Beta release is code-complete and bears a very strong resemblance to the final release. If you take the time to download and try out the Beta, you can check and make sure the things that are important to you are working. Every bug you find and report doesn’t just help you, it improves the experience of millions of Fedora users worldwide! Together, we can make Fedora rock-solid. We have a culture of coordinating new features and pushing fixes upstream as much as we can. Your feedback improves not only Fedora, but Linux and free software as a whole.</p>
