Thanks for moving this forward! In apache/arrow we have an umbrella issue [1] and I think we are at the point where we are ready to ask INFRA to rename the default branch to main. Thanks to Fiona and Kevin for their work on the hardcoded branch names in the dev tooling that was blocking this!
Unless there are any objections we can initiate the switch after the release.
