Thanks for the notes, Louis-Philippe, and sorry I couldn't join you!

My 2 cents' worth is as the 3.9->3.10 transition took several months,
and was quite complicated, it is not wise to attempt the 3.10->3.11
before the freeze.  We could then potentially go straight to 3.12 a
few months after the bookworm freeze rather than going to 3.11 first.
And that will probably be quite painful.

I'll take this to a separate email.
