Hi Martijn, Worth mentioning that the community is also actively working to get the next major release out, namely 4.0.0-alpha-1, in the next few weeks.
After getting the first cut of 4.0.0 out we should discuss if we can reasonably support older branches. The history so far shows that all the dev effort is put on master and many critical patches are never backported to other branches. I think supporting multiple branches is not sustainable and has not worked very well so far. Best, Stamatis On Wed, Mar 9, 2022 at 6:43 PM Chao Sun <sunc...@apache.org> wrote: > Correct.
