I cant upgrade 13.0 to 13.1

Code:
sudo freebsd-update -r 13.1-RELEASE upgrade
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 2 mirrors found.
Fetching metadata signature for 13.0-RELEASE from update1.freebsd.org... done.
Fetching metadata index... done.
Fetching 1 metadata patches. done.
Applying metadata patches... done.
Inspecting system... done.

The following components of FreeBSD seem to be installed:
kernel/generic src/src world/base world/lib32

The following components of FreeBSD do not seem to be installed:
kernel/generic-dbg world/base-dbg world/lib32-dbg

Does this look reasonable (y/n)? y

Fetching metadata signature for 13.1-RELEASE from update1.freebsd.org... failed.
Fetching metadata signature for 13.1-RELEASE from update2.freebsd.org... failed.
No mirrors remaining, giving up.

This may be because upgrading from this platform (amd64)
or release (13.1-RELEASE) is unsupported by freebsd-update. Only
platforms with Tier 1 support can be upgraded by freebsd-update.
See https://www.freebsd.org/platforms/index.html for more info.

If unsupported, FreeBSD must be upgraded by source.

Schedule has shifted a bit because more release candidates were required (the original schedule only had 2). There has been no official announcement of 13.1-RELEASE yet.

Schedules are made 'tentatively'. Which means the dates can shift, they're not set in stone.

I'll say thanks for that brief explanation, even if the OP neglects to. Cheers.

The announce mailing list should have something when it's released or worst case the front page at freebsd.org should have something, probably under latest news
 
Thank you. I have been using the product since version 10 , but I forgot that as a rule, the actual release announcement is usually at least 2 weeks late from the previously announced
 
… as a rule, the actual release announcement is usually at least 2 weeks late from the previously announced

Not really a rule, or a rule of thumb.

Better to think of the rule as: schedules are subject to change.


The same for this topic :)

The announce mailing list should have something when it's released …

👍 <https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-announce/2022-May/000032.html> was posted on the day of the announcement.

the front page at freebsd.org should have something, probably under latest news

Also, more prominently (higher):

– a direct link to the announcement.

The main page for FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE lacks a link to the announcement:
