See the list of alpha/beta release about 2/3 the way down this page: https://www.openssl.org/policies/releasestrat.html alpha1, 2020-03-31: Basic functionality plus basic FIPS module alpha2, 2020-04-21: Complete external provider support (serialization, support for new algs, support for providers which only include operations in a class) alpha3, 2020-05-21: Aiming to test the API completeness before beta1 freezes it) beta1, 2020-06-02: Code complete (API stable, feature freeze) betaN: Other beta releases TBD Final: 2020 early Q4 We are currently still on target for this timeline and are aiming for alpha1 at the end of March, with a final release in Q4. The final release does indeed mean the first official non-beta/dev release - although note that actual validation of the FIPS module may follow sometime later. Matt
