Hi All, I would like to announce the code freeze now, on the 4.19 branch. I've moved the open items in the 4.19.1.0 milestone [1] to the next milestone.
Only critical/blocker or any stabilization fixes are accepted from now onwards until end of next week (05-Jul). I'll work towards cutting 4.19.1.0 RC1 (and further RCs if necessary) from 06-Jul, and start voting / release process. Looking forward for your support. Thanks.

Also, please resolve any conflicts in your PRs, address the outstanding comments and share the test results. I'll announce the code freeze on email, and will move any open items to the next feasible milestone. Only critical/blocker fixes are accepted there onwards until end of next week (05-Jul). I'll work towards cutting RC1 from 06-Jul and start voting / release process. Please let me know if there are any concerns. Thanks.

There are already some open issues [1] and pull requests [2] targeted for 4.19.1.0 [3] release. I'd like to propose and put myself forward as the release manager for 4.19.1.0 if no objections there. Please ping me (@sureshanaparti) on GitHub, in case you want to include any Issue/PR in 4.19.1.0. I propose to have a window of at least 8 weeks (2 months), which allows the community / users to test, use 4.19.0.0 and report any issues. We can aim to cut RC1 in Q2 2024 (maybe, sometime in May-2024). I'll propose the timeline details soon. I hope to have your support. Please let me know if you have any thoughts/comments.
