Today's release is also the last #OracleSolaris 11.4 SRU to be published on our 3 SRUs per quarter (aka monthly) schedule. Going forward we will publish 2 SRUs per quarter for Solaris 11.4 instead, one corresponding to the Oracle Critical Patch Update schedule, which will continue to focus on security and critical bug fixes, and one about halfway between the CPU dates, which will include enhancements and smaller bug fixes as well. Thus the next SRU, which would normally be in mid-May, isn't expected until June. For more details see the Release Cadence section of the SRU 92 ReadMe at https://support.oracle.com/support/?kmExternalId=KB883064 .

Today is Oracle's quarterly Critical Patch Update release day, so for #OracleSolaris we have released an update for 11.4.
