-=== update rc.html ===
+=== validate images ===
+The list of images not yet released and still in validation : https://mirrors.o2switch.fr/batocera/rc.html
+for each image to release
+  * update, and check you're in the udpated version
+  * check minimum 3 emulators including retroarch
+  * check audio is working
