I have not followed the branch-2.11 work closely, but I think it makes
sense to re-create branch-2.11 from the current master.

We created branch-2.11 almost 3 months ago. Re-creating the branch
will prevent unnecessary delay on new features added over the past 3
months.

If we follow through with this proposal, we will need to clean up PR
tags and milestones to prevent confusion.

Thanks,
Michael
