Hey fellow Airflowers, I have cut Airflow 2.8.0rc3. This email is calling a vote on the release, which will last at least 40 hours (accelerated voting), from Wednesday, December 13, 2023, at 8:00 pm UTC until Friday, December 15, 2023, at 12:00 pm UTC <https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=8&iso=20231215T1200&p1=1440>, and until 3 binding +1 votes have been received.
Consider this my (binding) +1.

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 all members of the community are encouraged to test the release and vote with "(non-binding)". The test procedure for PMC members is described in: https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/dev/README_RELEASE_AIRFLOW.md\#verify-the-release-candidate-by-pmc-members The test procedure for and Contributors who would like to test this RC is described in: https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/dev/README_RELEASE_AIRFLOW.md\#verify-the-release-candidate-by-contributors Please note that the version number excludes the `rcX` string, so it's now simply 2.8.0. This will allow us to rename the artifact without modifying the artifact checksums when we actually release.
