July 2026 monthly release

@Ed_S

any new bugs which will shortly be fixed

I don’t think the ESR will receive that many bug fixes. Just like 2026.1 - it will only get security fixes from now on

@Discourse

The ESR channel is not necessarily more “stable” than latest. It’s more about the idea that the bugs are known, and it serves as a checkpoint for a specific set of features and improvements. With latest, there may be new bugs introduced, then fixed a few commits later.

So while in a month some of those bugs might be known, it doesn’t mean that you don’t have to deal with them
