Yesterday I reviewed all the issues in the 21.0.0 milestone and moved things to the 22.0.0 milestone [2] where appropriate. The milestone currently has 7 issues [3] with PRs that are close to being merged.
I suggest we continue working on closing the outstanding issues in the milestone this week and start on a release after that. Let me know if you have any concerns about this timeline. PS: Jacob, Kou, and Alenka will be helping with release tasks.
