Hi folks,

With XQuartz 2.8.2, I want to move us to using EdDSA to verify future software 
updates through Sparkle.

To test updating using EdDSA verification, I've released XQuartz 2.8.2 beta 2 
and beta 3, and I'd like to get some testing from the community using these 
releases. If you are able to help, please install beta 2 (or update to it from 
within the app if you're on the beta feed) and then update to beta 3 by 
temporarily switching to the alpha update feed:

    defaults write org.xquartz.X11 SUFeedURL 
https://www.xquartz.org/releases/sparkle/alpha.xml

Then launch XQuartz (2.8.2_beta2) and check for updates (XQuartz -> Check For 
X11 Updates...).  Install the update (to beta 3), and report any issues you run 
into.  When done, please move back to the default feed:

    defaults delete org.xquartz.X11 SUFeedURL

Note that beta 3 is basically identical to beta 2.  It was just built on 
another system with a slightly newer Xcode.  The main changes in betas 2/3 
compared to beta 1 are the updates to Sparkle (1.26 -> 1.27.1), transition to 
EdDSA verification, and a few updates pulled in from upstream projects (eg: 
libxcb, libX11, mesa, freetype).

Thanks,
Jeremy
