For reference we have released https://github.com/instaclustr/cassandra , with the end goal that people have a stable target on the 3.x branch while this is all worked out.
We are likely to continue our releases even with a release cadence change, but we would track official versions much more closely and our repository will end up just being a public view of what we do internally rather than something we advocate over official releases.
