Hi!

Version 26.2 of the Emacs text editor is now available.

For more information on Emacs, see:
  https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs

You can retrieve the source from your nearest GNU mirror by using one
of the following links:
  https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/emacs/emacs-26.2.tar.xz
  https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/emacs/emacs-26.2.tar.gz

You can get the PGP signatures[1] at
  https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/emacs-26.2.tar.xz.sig
  https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/emacs-26.2.tar.gz.sig

You can choose a mirror explicitly from the list at:
  https://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html

Mirrors may take some time to update; the main GNU ftp server is at:
  https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/

Highlights of this release include:

  - Emacs modules can now be built outside of the Emacs tree source.
  - Emacs is now compliant with the latest version 11.0 of the Unicode
    Standard.
  - In Dired, the 'Z' command on a directory name compresses all of its
    files.

There are many more changes; for a summary see the etc/NEWS file, which
you can view from Emacs with `C-h n'.

For the complete list of changes and the people who made them, see the
various ChangeLog files in the source distribution.  For a summary of
all the people who have contributed to Emacs, see the etc/AUTHORS file.

The pages on https://gnu.org/s/emacs as well as the online manuals will
be updated shortly.

Printed copies of the Emacs manual are available for purchase from the
Free Software Foundation's online store at:
https://shop.fsf.org/product/emacs-manual/

[1] The PGP keys contained in the GNU Keyring are outdated.  Until this
is fixed, you can get up-to-date public keys from a keyserver such as
gnupg.net:
  http://keys.gnupg.net/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x233587A47C207910

Regards,
Nico

Windows Builds available on alpha

https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/windows/emacs-26/

I'd welcome someone testing them independently, then I will promote.

Hi,

Thanks for this.

Seems to work nicely for me. I did not do any significant tests but
starting up Emacs with my normal configuration showed no problems. I even
tried my old hack Tumme, I mean Image Dired, and all worked nicely (thanks
to everyone who have helped polish it since I have more or less abandoned
it...)

So all good, from my end at least!

I installed the x86_64 no-deps file (I have mingw64 installed
separately); does Gnus fine (I'm using it to send this email).

I installed `emacs-26.2-x86_64.zip' and it works good.

Thanks for doing this, Phillip.

When you do promote from alpha to primetime, you might want to also send the announcement to info-gnu-emacs@gnu.org.

Will try and remember to do this in future, and have done now.
