Airflow/Airflow Core: +1 (binding), checked: - SVN - Reproducible package build - Licenses - Signatures - Checksums - Install in Docker - Source tarball Task SDK: +1 (binding), checked: - SVN - Reproducible package build - Licenses - Signatures - Checksums - Install in Docker
However - there is the issue with PyJWT 2.11.0 that introduced more validations on JWT tokens which was a breaking change for us ( https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/61331) - this means that if someone install now 3.1.7 without constraints, airflow will not work for them (see https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/61255#issuecomment-3832704070). My suggestion would be to have rc2 to avoid users bombarding us with issues. J.
