Dear dev1ers,

The Devuan 3 Beowulf Beta release is now ready for review. The installer
isos,
desktop-live and minimal-live isos can be downloaded from:

https://files.devuan.org/devuan_beowulf/

### What's new in Beowulf

Changes in su
  - The behavior of su has changed. Use 'su -' to get root's path or use
    the full path to commands if you use only 'su'. See the following for
    more information:


https://www.debian.org/releases/buster/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#su-environment-variables
    https://wiki.debian.org/NewInBuster
    https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=905564


Pulseaudio
  - If you have no sound, make sure the following line in
    /etc/pulse/client.conf.d/00-disable-autospawn.conf is commented as
    shown here:


    #autospawn=no


  - Note that firefox-esr no longer requires pulseaudio. You can easily
    remove pulseaudio and just use alsa.


Please read the Release Notes for more detailed information:
