The NetBSD Project is pleased to announce NetBSD 9.3, the third release from the NetBSD 9 stable branch.

It represents a selected subset of fixes deemed important for security or stability reasons since the release of NetBSD 9.2 in May 2021, as well some enhancements backported from the development branch. It is fully compatible with NetBSD 9.0. Users running 9.2 or an earlier release are strongly recommended to upgrade.

Aside from many bug fixes, 9.3 includes backported improvements to suspend and resume support, various minor additions of new hardware to existing device drivers, compatibility with UDF file systems created on Windows 10, enhanced support for newer Intel Gigabit Ethernet chipsets, better support for new Intel and AMD Zen 3 chipsets, support for configuring connections to Wi-Fi networks using sysinst(8), support for wsfb-based X11 servers on the Commodore Amiga, and minor performance improvements for the Xen hypervisor.

> NetBSD is a professional operating system, but I also love a bit of whimsy. Same goes for OpenBSD’s songs and art for each release.

> NetBSD have also long had an RSS feed available for their release announcements. I tend to read mailing lists for this sort of information, but I welcome anything to make these more accessible.
