OK! I'm back on this subject and interested in getting this done! I was blocked for a while on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-3454, but I think I've found a workaround.
For all of the interest in shadowing the release, we'll try to find a common time. Don't worry too much about missing out if we can't arrange a common time -- this could be something that we do for all releases, for as long as there are contributors that find it worthwhile! I think the process is not significantly different than what we've documented, but it's especially useful to have extra eyes to point out what we no longer notice. My apologies for letting this release drag on for quite a while (nearly 3 months) -- just a reminder if you've seen something checked into master that is a good candidate for 1.11.1, don't hesitate to bring it up here!
