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 contributors and members of the community 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 3.1.8 for Airflow package and 1.1.8 for Task SDK. This will allow us
to rename the artifact without modifying
the artifact checksums when we actually release.
