[ANNOUNCE] mesa 24.0.0-rc1

[Eric Engestrom]

Hello everyone,

I'm happy to announce the start of a new release cycle with the first
release candidate, 24.0.0-rc1.

As always, if you find any issues please report them here:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/new

Any issue that should block the release of 24.0.0 final, thus adding
more 24.0.0-rc* release candidates, must be added to this milestone:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/milestones/45

The next release candidate is expected in one week, on January 17th.

Cheers,
  Eric
