I have staged several releases - Blueprint and its dependencies in Aries. There are bug fix releases with micro version number changes and functional releases with minor version number changes. This is the first significant release since moving to a semantically versioned release process and a lot of changes have happened since the last release. Please take the time to check the artifacts and vote accordingly. A link to the list of JIRAs for each release is included.
