The RC4 window was pretty quiet thankfully. The only significant change
we took in added a missing '#include' directive to the tcti-mssim.c
source file:
https://github.com/tpm2-software/tpm2-tss/commit/171612924a627e73d6c826efb8706587bec69060

Given that we've already been through 5 RCs and this one change during
RC4 is pretty minor I'm satisfied that we're ready for the 2.0.0
release! The final changes to version numbers and the CHANGELOG.md are
done, the 2.0.0 tag has been signed and the release artifacts uploaded
to github: https://github.com/tpm2-software/tpm2-tss/releases/tag/2.0.0

Please go grab the tarball and give the release as much testing as you
can. Many thanks to everyone who contributed code, tests, testing,
documentation and everything else that's gone into this release.

Regards,
Philip
