+===========
+
+skiboot v6.8 was released on Friday May 28th 2021. It is the first release
+of skiboot 6.8 series, which becomes the new stable release following the
+:ref:`skiboot-6.7` release, first released Tuesday November 3rd 2020.
+
+This release is entirely focused on bug-fixes and probably first time we have
+not added any new feature. However, this is expected as development has
+largely shifted towards enabling future processor.
