Linux Kernel 4.11 to Launch on April 30 as Linus Torvalds Released Eighth RC
We were expecting so see the final release of the Linux 4.11 kernel launch on Sunday evening, but it didn't happen as Linus Torvalds announced the eighth and last Release Candidate (RC) version instead.
According to Linus Torvalds, the release of Linux kernel 4.11 should have happened on Sunday, April 23, 2017, but things don't always go as planned, and it looks like some last minute blockers, such as some nasty issues with the NVMe power management support, were discovered, which is the main reason we see the RC8 build.

61 New Patches Allow OpenGL 4.5 For Radeon RX Vega
Initial support for Radeon RX Vega support in Mesa landed for Mesa 17.1 at the end of March. However, this initial support was limited to OpenGL 3.1 while now patches have come to take Vega up to OpenGL 4.5.
