I just put a patch up for the last 0.7.0 issue in the milestone
(ARROW-1459). If no other issues arise , I will plan to cut an RC
tomorrow once the outstanding 0.7.0 PRs are merged. Please let me know
if there's anything additional that needs to get done.

Release milestone:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/ARROW/versions/12341141

Thanks!
Wes
