Debian 14 (Forky)
Following the release of Debian 13 (Trixie), testing for Debian 14, also known by the code name Forky would be released (as Debian 14) in 2027.
The code name for the next major Debian release after Trixie is "Forky".
This release started as a copy of Trixie and is currently in a state called "testing". This means that things should not break as badly as in unstable or experimental distributions, because packages are allowed to enter this distribution only after a certain period of time has passed, and when they don't have any release-critical bugs filed against them.
Please note that security updates for "testing" distribution are not yet managed by the security team. Hence, "testing" does not get security updates in a timely manner. You are encouraged to switch your sources.list entries from testing to Trixie for the time being if you need security support. See also the entry in the Security Team's FAQ for the "testing" distribution.
There may be a draft of the release notes available. Please also check the proposed additions to the release notes.
For installation images and documentation about how to install "testing", see the Debian-Installer page.
To find out more about how the "testing" distribution works, check the developers' information about it.
People often ask if there is a single release "progress meter". Unfortunately there isn't one, but we can refer you to several places that describe things needed to be dealt with for the release to happen:
