Hey all,

I have just cut the new wave Airflow Providers packages with release
preparation date 2026-10-14. This email is calling a vote on the
release,
which will last for 72 hours - which means that it will end on
2026-10-17 14:46 UTC and until 3 binding +1 votes have been received.

Consider this my (binding) +1.

This is an ad-hoc wave that re-cuts the four providers excluded from
the 2026-10-06 wave, now that the regressions found during that vote
are fixed:

* amazon 9.38.0rc2 - fixes the AWS auth manager login failure with IAM
Identity Center
* dbt.cloud 4.11.0rc2 - fixes deferred tasks failing with tenacity retry_args
* google 22.7.0rc2 - fixes GKE operator imports with older
cncf-kubernetes providers
* common.ai 1.0.0rc1 - the first stable release of the provider (it
was 0.11.0rc1 in the previous wave). It contains breaking changes,
each with migration notes in the changelog.

common.compat 1.22.0rc1 is also included, because the new EMR
Serverless session operator in amazon needs it.

Only votes from PMC members are binding, but members of the community are
encouraged to test the release and vote with "(non-binding)".

Please note that the version number excludes the 'rcX' string.
This will allow us to rename the artifact without modifying
the artifact checksums when we actually release it.

The status of testing the providers by the community is kept here:
https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/74741

The issue is also the easiest way to see important PRs included in the
RC candidates.
Detailed changelog for the providers will be published in the
documentation after the
RC candidates are released.
