Jinfeng is in the process of getting Drill back onto the master of Calcite. He is working on this actively right now. (We'd fallen a bit behind.) I imagine there would be a smattering of fixes that will come out of this work and I'd love to get these incorporated. I'd love to have a couple more weeks to get those in and start a 1.0 vote early February. Anything in particular that would make targeting a few weeks later an issue?
