Thank you all! I also think Iceberg REST Catalog is not a blocker. It is nice to have, and HIVE-29019 verified that no critical bugs, such as metadata corruptions, exist in the current effective endpoint. Improving the release cadence sounds more important.
Regarding 4.1 vs 5.0, I also don't have a firm preference. If we go with 5.0, isn't the extra work significant? We may have to change the fix versions of all tickets, update some documents mentioning 4.1.0(such as the following one), that's all? In that case, it sounds technically possible. - https://hive.apache.org/docs/latest/capture-lineage-info/ I'm excited about the next release. Hopefully, everyone shares the thought!
