Hello, It has been almost two months since our last release [1], and I think we should make an effort to continue keeping the rhythm of one release every two months approximately.
If I am not mistaken, the next release managers would be [2]: - Andrei Sereda for 1.30.0 - Liya Fan for 1.31.0 Are you guys still able to act as release managers for these versions? Do we have any other volunteers for the subsequent releases? As usual, according to our Jira dashboard [3] and Github [4], there are many pending issues that could / should be part of the release. What do you think would be a reasonable date to propose for a RC? Perhaps 28th February? I would like to let us have plenty of time to collectively review the PR candidates and "unblock" (to some extent) the PR situation (see also the recent separate thread on that matter [5]).
