I'd love to see a 9.5 go out sometime in January to get our new Python and Javascript clients in front of users. I'm willing to RM the release, or share duties with you if you're interested David? Publishing the new clients will require some changes to the release process, and I'd hate to saddle someone else with ironing out whatever hiccups are likely to crop up.
What do you guys think about doing 9.5 on a January-ish timeframe? That said, if someone else wants a 9.4.1 I don't want to get in the way of that either. Jan's right that there'd still be value in a 9.4.1 even with a 9.5. I imagine the driving factor would be whether there's a willing RM for 9.4.1 On Wed, Dec 6, 2023 at 5:42 AM Jan Høydahl <jan....@cominvent.com> wrote: > The benefit of doing 9.4.1 now is that it won't have that unknown > regression that may be lurking in branch_9x now, so it's a much easier > upgrade path for 9.4.0 users. > However, I feel a 9.5 should follow quickly after.
