A new DPDK release candidate is ready for testing:
	http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/tag/?id=v16.04-rc1

This is the first release candidate for DPDK 16.04.
As the new versioning scheme suggests, this version must
be released during April of year 2016.
We have 3 weeks to make the validation and fixes.

The last big changes which could be accepted in the RC2 are:
	- link speed API rework (waiting for feedbacks)
	- update of recent drivers
	- new drivers

Please start now discussing the changes you plan to do for
the next release cycle (16.07).
