Hey all, I have just prepared an out-of-band release of Airflow Provider "cncf.kubernetes" provider. This email is calling a vote on the release, This will last for 72 hours - which means that it will end on Tue 3 May 12:30 CEST 2022. However if enough PMC members will vote and agree on this we might shorten the time a bit, because this release contains a critical bug fix which is necessary to release the 2.3.0 release of Airflow (voting is just about to be concluded for Airflow 2.3.0).
Shortening voting time is an extraordinary measure (which is OK according to policies of the ASF as long as it's extraordinary and there is a consensus among the PMC members that we should do it). Consider this my (binding) +1. Airflow Providers are available at: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/providers/ *apache-airflow-providers-<PROVIDER>-*.tar.gz* are the binary Python "sdist" release - they are also official "sources" for the provider packages. *apache_airflow_providers_<PROVIDER>-*.whl are the binary Python "wheel" release. The test procedure for PMC members who would like to test the RC candidates are described in https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/dev/README_RELEASE_PROVIDER_PACKAGES.md#verify-the-release-by-pmc-members and for Contributors: https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/dev/README_RELEASE_PROVIDER_PACKAGES.md#verify-by-contributors Public keys are available at: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/KEYS Please vote accordingly: [ ] +1 approve [ ] +0 no opinion [ ] -1 disapprove with the reason Only votes from PMC members are binding, but members of the community are encouraged to test the release and vote with "(non-binding)". Please note that the version number excludes the 'rcX' string. This will allow us to rename the artifact without modifying the artifact checksums when we actually release. The status of testing the providers by the community is kept here: https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/23375 You can find packages as well as detailed changelog following the below links: https://pypi.org/project/apache-airflow-providers-cncf-kubernetes/4.0.1rc1/ Cheers, J.
