Apache Airflow newsletter for anyone too busy to read the devlist. *1st Apache Airflow newsletter*
*What's new in the project? October 2020.* 1️⃣ *Apache Airflow 2.0.0beta2 and Providers 1.0.0beta1* are ready for testing! 🥳Airflow 2 is now “feature-complete” — new features to the core Airflow will wait for Airflow 2.1. We’re still on track to release the first Airflow 2.0 RC (release candidate) on December 7. For more info see the whole thread in the devlist.

Thanks to the additional credits in one of the cloud providers, we would be able to use self-hosted runners. It should definitely help speed up the Airflow's CI. 3️⃣* Backport providers *- we have a new release of backport providers - full set of them with 2020.10.29 version. Switching to the backport providers is an important step to make your future migration to Airflow 2.0 as seamless as possible. List of backport providers is available <https://pypi.org/search/?q=apache-airflow-backport-providers>. *4️⃣ Issue triage effort. *Over time, as the Apache Airflow project has grown and shifted the handling of “Issues” from JIRA to GitHub, the “Issues” part of the project has lacked clear documentation and has therefore become somewhat chaotic. In order to clean the documentation up a little bit, for anyone interested, there's an ongoing discussion <https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r58b534a6603ab7bfe65d3f29c8c07b710713ee62a089f52fab0404e2%40%3Cdev.airflow.apache.org%3E> about enhancing the issue triage process. *5️⃣ Launch of the documentation SIG *(Special Interest Group). All current reflections about the presence and future of the Apache Airflow documentation. There's a summary of the topics <https://github.com/apache/airflow/discussions/12112> discussed during the latest call of the SIG on Github. *🍕🍻 Apache Airflow events 🍕🍻* [PAST EVENTS] - Contributing to Apache Airflow remote workshop done by Jarek Potiuk and Tomek Urbaszek from Polidea.
