What precisely do you mean is required? If you look [here](http://mirror.0xem.ma/gnu/emacs/), the latest release tarball is version 27.x and if you need Emacs 28, you need to compile it from cloning from `savannah` repo. So, @leahneukirchen is holding on until upstream provides latest release tarball. >Software need to be used in version announced by authors as ready to use by the general public - usually called releases. Betas, arbitrary VCS revisions, templates using tip of development branch taken at build time and releases created by the package maintainer won't be accepted.
