I plan to run few builds with Corretto etc and do few manual tests, I will try 
to push that as soon as possible but it might happen it will leak to the next 
week.

Subject: August 5.0 Freeze (with waivers…) and a 5.0-alpha1

The previous thread¹ on when to freeze 5.0 landed on freezing the first week of 
August, with a waiver in place for TCM and Accord to land later (but before 
October).

With JDK8 now dropped and SAI and UCS merged, the only expected 5.0 work that 
hasn't landed is Vector search (CEP-30).

Are there any objections to a waiver on Vector search?  All the groundwork: SAI 
and the vector type; has been merged, with all remaining work expected to land 
in August.

I'm keen to freeze and see us shift gears – there's already SO MUCH in 5.0 and 
a long list of flakies.  It takes time and patience to triage and identify the 
bugs that hit us before GA.  The freeze is about being "mostly feature 
complete",  so we have room for things before our first beta (precedence is to 
ask).   If we hope for a GA by December, account for the 6 weeks turnaround 
time for cutting and voting on one alpha, one beta, and one rc release, and the 
quiet period that August is, we really only have September and October left.

I already feel this is asking a bit of a miracle from us given how 4.1 went 
(and I'm hoping I will be proven wrong).

In addition, are there any objections to cutting an 5.0-alpha1 release as soon 
as we freeze?

This is on the understanding vector, tcm and accord will become available in 
later alphas.  Originally the discussion¹ was waiting for Accord for alpha1, 
but a number of folk off-list have requested earlier alphas to help with 
testing.
