Hello everyone, As discussed previously [1] we intend to do the Avro 1.10.0 release on May so I wanted to propose to cut the branch the next May 15th. The idea is that in the following weeks we work hard on reviews and issue triage and maybe the latest dependency updates. Once the branch is cut we let then some days to stabilize the release branch (hopefully 1-2 weeks) and then go with the vote.
If you have issues you want to mark as critical to be part of the release (e.g. security related or data corruption) mark them with the Fix Version: 1.10.0 field in JIRA and more important if you have issues that you think won’t be able to make it in time please unmark/untag them or mark them as version 1.11.0 This is the list of open issues for the release, so please go ahead and help us finish/triage them. https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20AVRO%20AND%20status%20in%20(Open%2C%20%22In%20Progress%22%2C%20Reopened%2C%20%22Patch%20Available%22)%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%201.10.0 Thanks, and good triage, don’t hesitate to email me or ping me in your PRs./tickets to bring my attention on critical things for the release. Best, Ismaël
