> Given fixed time, adding more TODOs generally means other stuff has to be taken out for the release. If not, then it happens de facto anyway, which is worse than managing it on purpose. +1 to this. I wouldn't mind helping go through open issues on JIRA targeted for the next release around RC ti

I also like using Target Version meaningfully. It might be a little much to require no Target Version = X before starting an RC. I do think it's reasonable to not start the RC with Blockers open. And here we started the RC with almost 100 TODOs for 1.4.0, most of which did not get done. Not the en

I appreciate targets having the strong meaning you suggest, as its useful to get a sense of what will realistically be included in a release. Would it make sense (speaking as a relative outsider here) that we would not enter into the RC phase of a release until all JIRA targeting that release wer

Question: what would happen if I cleared Target Version for everything still marked Target Version = 1.4.0? There are 76 right now, and clearly that's not correct. 56 were opened by committers, including issues like "Do X for 1.4". I'd like to understand whether these are resolved but just weren't

No 1.4.0 Blockers at this point, which is great. Forking this thread to discuss something else. There are 92 issues targeted for 1.4.0, 28 of which are marked Critical. Many are procedural issues like "update docs for 1.4" or "check X for 1.4". Are these resolved? They sound like things that are d
