[Public] Hi Timur,
I tested the series on top of the promotion for this week, and it tested fine. So it should be merged alongside, and I can validate that next week. With that, I don't see why it wouldn't make it into 6.19. If there's anyone who's more knowledgeable on the release timelines who can confirm, that would be helpful.

Please let me know how it goes. Is there any way I can help? I respect that testing and validating a huge series is non-trivial. However, considering that we have already missed the deadline for 6.18, I'd like to make sure, can this feature make it into 6.19?
