Hey all! It's officially *feature freeze for 3.4* so make sure you get that feature work merged by the end of today. After this point, only bug fixes and other work focused on stabilizing the release should be merged to the release branch. Also note that the *3.4 code freeze* will be in one week (*Dec 7th*) so please make sure to stabilize and thoroughly test any new features.
I will wait until Friday to create the release branch to allow for any existing PRs to be merged. After this point you'll need to cherrypick any new commits to the 3.4 branch once a PR is merged. Finally, I've updated the list of KIPs targeted for 3.4. Please check out the Planned KIP Content on the release plan and let me know if there is anything missing or incorrect on there.
