For those who want to test upcoming releases early, I have updated the 5.2-dev and 6.0-dev release directories on dist.plone.org.

5.2-dev:

See https://dist.plone.org/release/5.2-dev/

Changes since 5.2.6:

  • plone.app.linkintegrity: Track integrity of video and audio files in HTML source tags.
  • plone.app.z3cform and plone.app.textfield: Enable multiple wysiwyg editors (use default editor registry setting).
  • plone.namedfile: Make DefaultImageScalingFactory more flexible, with methods you can override.
  • plone.app.layout: Improved the Global section viewlet:
    • Catalog based navigation.
    • Allow more customization by adding methods as hooks.
    • Various performance optimizations.
    • Deprecate now unused navtree_depth property.
  • diazo: Removed FormEncode test dependency.

6.0-dev

See https://dist.plone.org/release/6.0-dev/

Changes since 6.0.0a2:

  • Updated the versions of the build requirements: setuptools to 59.6.0, zc.buildout to 3.0.0rc1, pip to 21.3.1.
  • Products.CMFEditions: got rid of the skins directory. Most items in here have been moved to browser views. Some were no longer used, or had an alternative, and were removed.
  • plone.app.linkintegrity: Track integrity of video and audio files in HTML source tags.
  • plone.app.uuid: Speed up uuidToPhysicalPath and uuidToObject.

I have updated 6.0-dev, including internal releases of Products.CMFPlone and plone.app.upgrade that are available only on dist.plone.org.
See the release notes.
Several packages are missing new releases, especially plone.staticresources, so javascript may not work properly.

We should have an alpha4 soonish.

is it possible that a pre-release of plone.app.upgrade = 3.0.0a4.dev0 on pypi is missing? It is pinned in the version.cfg, but not available on pypi

Correct. Such a prerelease version cannot even be uploaded to PyPI.
You should add https://dist.plone.org/release/6.0-dev/ to the find-links in your buildout config.

Sorry, I should have mentioned this.
