U-Boot Concept Releases
=======================

This document tracks all concept releases of U-Boot, including both final
releases and release candidates.

About Concept Releases
----------------------

Concept releases are automated builds of U-Boot that are:

* **Automatically generated** when changes are pushed to the master branch
* **Published as snap packages** for easy installation and testing  
* **Available in two variants**: QEMU-based and EFI-based builds

These releases allow developers and users to easily test the latest U-Boot
features without building from source.
