+CakePHP 4.6.0-RC1 Released
+============================
+
+The CakePHP core team is happy to announce the first release candidate for
+CakePHP 4.6.0. The 4.6 release includes features backported from 5.1 and the
+upcoming 5.2 releases. 4.6.0 is a smaller release, as the core team's focus is
+on 5.x now. 4.x feature releases are now driven by primarily by community
+involvement. The highlights of what is new in 4.6 include:
+
+- ``RedisEngine`` now supports a ``tls`` option for connecting to redis via
+  a TLS connection.
+-  ``Number::formatter()`` and ``currency()`` now support a ``roundingMode``
+  option to control how rounding is handled.
+
+What's new in 4.6.0
+-------------------
+
+The `migration guide
+<https://book.cakephp.org/4.next/en/appendices/4-6-migration-guide.html>`_ has
+a complete list of what's new in 4.6.0.
+
+How you Can Help
+----------------
+
+You can help deliver 4.6.0 by contributing in one of many ways:
+
+#. Check the `documentation <https://book.cakephp.org/4.next/en/>`_ for mistakes,
+   outdated, unclear or broken examples. We've been trying to update the
+   documentation as we go, but there are likely examples or sections we've
+   missed.
+#. Try it out! Give CakePHP 4.6.0 a test drive. Let us know how upgrading
+   went and if there were any rough spots.
+#. File issues for regressions in existing features, or suggest new features.
