Hey all,

I have just cut the new wave Airflow Providers packages with release 
preparation date 2026-07-06. This email is calling a vote on the release,
which will last for 72 hours - which means that it will end on 2026-07-10 16:06 
UTC and until 3 binding +1 votes have been received.


Consider this my (binding) +1.

Important callouts:
- apache-airflow-providers-postgres. Even though this provider is included in 
this email, it will be skipped and released in the next wave instead. The 
reason is that PR https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/69526 is not yet 
merged and will most likely be released in the next wave. Since this is a 
breaking change (thus, a major version bump), and we already have another PR 
with a breaking change for this provider in this release wave 
(https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/69089), we decided with Iliya Romm to 
postpone it to the next provider release so we only ship one major version 
upgrade instead of two. See the Slack thread for more details here: 
https://apache-airflow.slack.com/archives/C03G9H97MM2/p1783358970674109

Only votes from PMC members are binding, but members of the community are
encouraged to test the release and vote with "(non-binding)".

Please note that the version number excludes the 'rcX' string.
This will allow us to rename the artifact without modifying
the artifact checksums when we actually release it.

The issue is also the easiest way to see important PRs included in the RC
