Thanks to Stamatis for bringing up the release. I think this is a great cadence. I recall someone volunteered to be the Release Manager for Calcite 1.43.0, but I can't seem to find the email. If they're no longer available, I'd be happy to step in as a backup. I haven't done this role before, but I'm eager to give it a try.

It would be great if we could have a new Calcite release by the end of this month to keep a steady cadence and keep the release burden lightweight. To begin with, we will need a release manager. Is there someone available to lead the 1.43.0 release? There have been various dependency and docker improvements in Avatica so it may be a good time to also make a jump to avatica-1.29.0 but we will need to release that beforehand. What else do we want to include in the 1.43.0 release? Best, Stamatis [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=12333950
