Given that these unplanned transitions created a clog that is forcing an indefinite delay to a planned transition, and indeed is causing migration delays to other assorted package uploads more generally, allowing these large language runtime transitions to occur at the same time seems suboptimal. If it's not specifically intended to have that happen, perhaps it would be worth considering switching some of these languages to sync block at the start of the cycle? That would permit better coordination for when they kick off. This approach has proven workable and effective with other language runtimes that had clog problems in the past.
