These are the beta release notes for Home Assistant Core 2021.1 (and is thus a
work in progress).
We said goodbye to 2020, which was a weird and wild year. 2020 will be
remembered because of the awful pandemic, that hopefully will get under control
in 2021.
If you encounter any issues with the beta release, please report them on GitHub:
We wish you, your family, friends and everyone around you, safety, health,
happiness and countless blessings for 2021!

Happy New Year!
Please be sure to include the beta version you are running in the issue
description (not title), so we can classify your issue correctly.
Kicking off the year with Home Assistant Core 2021.1!
Issues introduced in the beta are processed with priority.
Now don't get too excited. The 2020.12 release was jam-packed, and most of us
enjoyed the holidays with our loved ones. Furthermore, we didn't have a full
release cycle, this one was shorter than usual. This is due to the delaying of
the previous release cycle (for the conference) and the introduction of the new
release cycle (monthly now).
## Table of contents
As a result of that, this release starts 2021 slowly, with a light release.
No big new features, no new integrations. Just fixes, tweaking and tuning.

Besides, I'm curious, what is your smart home new years resolution?
Let me know in the comments!
Enjoy the release!

## Lorem ipsum
## In memoriam of villhellm
Lorem ipsum
It is with sadness that we announce that one of the Jedis in our Discord Server,
[@villhellm](https://www.github.com/villhellm) (William), who had been actively
involved with the Home Assistant community for a number of years, had passed
away right before Christmas of 2020 at the age of 27.
<!--- <p class='img'>
<img src='/images/blog/2021-01/blueprints.png' alt='Screenshot of the lorem ipsum'>
Screenshot of the lorem ipsum.
</p> -->
He had been an active member in forums, and other discord servers related to
Home Automation (Dr. Zzs, DigiblurDIY, and many more.)
We want to take a moment to recognize his efforts and the support he had
provided to the HA community, and may he rest in peace.
Some of his friends have set up a [GoFundMe](https://gofund.me/f14a5a4a) account
to help his surviving wife and family members. We now have an opportunity to
help his family get through these difficult times.
We thank you for your support!
## Home Assistant Conference Videos
A couple of weeks ago, the Home Assistant Conference of 2020 took place. We had
quite a few messages and requests for making all talks held at the conference
available for viewing.
We have started the process of making those available on our
[YouTube Channel][channel]. So, if you haven't done ot already, go to our
channel and subscribe and you'll be notified when we make another talk
available.
All videos of the conference will be added to the
[Home Assistant Conference 2020 playlist][playlist] on YouTube as well.
