+
+Apertis is a Debian derivative distribution geared towards the creation
+of product-specific images for ARM (both the 32bit ARMv7 and 64-bit
+ARMv8 versions using the hardfloat ABI) and Intel x86-64 (64-bit)
+systems.
+
+**Apertis v2023dev1** is the second **development** of the Apertis
+v2023 stable release flow that will lead to the LTS **Apertis v2023.0**
+release in March 2023.
+
+This Apertis release is built on top of Debian Buster with several
+customisations. It currently
+ships with the Linux kernel 5.15.x LTS series but later releases in the
+v2023 channel will track newer kernel versions up to the next LTS.
+
+Test results for the v2023dev1 release are available in the following
+test reports:
+
+  - [APT images](https://lavaphabbridge.apertis.org/report/v2022/20220309.0316/apt)
+  - [OSTree images](https://lavaphabbridge.apertis.org/report/v2022/20220309.0316/ostree)
+  - [NFS artifacts](https://lavaphabbridge.apertis.org/report/v2022/20220309.0316/nfs)
+  - [LXC containers](https://lavaphabbridge.apertis.org/report/v2022/20220309.0316/lxc)

+The Intel `fixedfunction` and `hmi` images are tested on the
+[reference hardware (MinnowBoard Turbot Dual-Core)]( {{< ref "/reference_hardware/amd64.md" >}} ),
+but they can run on any UEFI-based x86-64 system. The `sdk` image is
+[tested under VirtualBox]( {{< ref "/virtualbox.md" >}} ).

+## New features
+
+### Completion of the GPL-3-free modernization
+
+This release completes the modernization of the approach to
+[licensing expectations compliance]({{< ref "license-expectations.md" >}})
+started with the
+[v2022dev2]({{< ref "release/v2022dev2/releasenotes.md" >}}) release.
+
+The [v2022.0]({{< ref "release/v2022.0/releasenotes.md" >}}) release already
+addressed the licensing challenges in the
+[TLS stack]({{< ref "tls-stack.md" >}}),
+[Coreutils]({{< ref "coreutils-replacement.md" >}}), and
+[GnuPG]({{< ref "gnupg-replacement.md" >}}) and this release addresses all the
+smaller challenges identified in the
+[GPL-3 Deltas Assessment]({{< ref "gpl3_free_deltas.md" >}}),
+in particular the move to `rust-findutils` and `libedit`.
+
+## Build and integration
+
+### Automated note importing in QA Report App
+
+The QA report app is the tool used to collect and summarize the test results for all the Apertis images.
+To improve the user experience for testers running manual tests and to reduce
+the amount of information introduced, now the results notes are
+[automatically propagated](https://gitlab.apertis.org/infrastructure/qa-report-app/-/merge_requests/121)
+from previous submissions, giving the chance to the user to amend them to match
+the current results.
+
+## Deprecations and ABI/API breaks
+
+### Regressions
+
+No known regressions.
+
+### Deprecations
+
+No known deprecations
+
+### Breaks
+
+#### GPL-3 replacements revamp on target images (HMI and FixedFunction)
+
+The obsolete `findutils-gplv2` and `readline5` packages are not longer
+available in the `target` packaging repositories.
+
+The HMI and FixedFunction images now use the `rust-findutils` tools and the
+API-compatible `libedit` to be compliant with the
+[Apertis licensing expectations]({{< ref "license-expectations.md" >}})
+while avoiding unmaintained forks of GPL-3 components.
+
+See the [GPL-3 Deltas Assessment]({{< ref "gpl3_free_deltas.md" >}}) document
+for further details.
