Hi everyone, ... it has been a while since the last release (a year)... so let's have a new one before we head to Halifax. It's been a busy year, we definitely have enough new features and improvements for a release.
Please help out and let me know if there are any features/open tickets you need to have in this release or if there is major experimental work under way that is not finished yet (and maybe shouldn't be included in this release). I'll start triaging the tickets in Jira... anything that isn't being worked on will be moved to a hypothetical version (probably 3.x or the like, proposed by James) to avoid that some really long running tickets immediately reappear for the next release. After a while we should have a look at these old tickets and decide what to do with them. Doesn't help to drag them around for years if we don't pick them up (or they are not relevant anymore). That's something for another day then. So... please let me know if anything specific needs to be on our radar for this release. I will start the official release process very soon. Thanks in advance for your help. Cheers, Aleks
