Hi everyone,
There have been no votes on this release. Are people available to try it
out? Tomorrow, I will be able to complete the binary builds and submit
my own vote.
Remember, 3.1.1 will not be cut unless 3 +1 votes, minimum, arrive from
committers, with no blockers by convention. The Mac situation needs to
be investigated. It's not clear to me that there is consensus on
blocking the release on the new request header toggle, but if there is,
I could cut a 3.1.1-RC3 _without_ that change tomorrow if consensus
materialises overnight.
Note that I will be on holiday starting end of the week for 2.5 weeks.
If 3.1.1 doesn't cut from this RC, for whatever reason, the next
opportunity I will have to turn the crank will be 5 October 2020.

Dear community,
I would like to propose that we release Apache CouchDB 3.1.1.
Changes since the last round:
https://github.com/apache/couchdb/compare/3.1.1-RC1...3.1.1-RC2
Candidate release notes:
https://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/whatsnew/3.1.html
We encourage the whole community to download and test these release
artefacts so that any critical issues can be resolved before the release
is made. Everyone is free to vote on this release, so dig right in!
(Only PMC members have binding votes, but they depend on community
feedback to gauge if an official release is ready to be made.)
The release artefacts we are voting on are available here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/couchdb/source/3.1.1/rc.2/
There, you will find a tarball, a GPG signature, and SHA256/SHA512
checksums.
Please follow the test procedure here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COUCHDB/Testing+a+Source+Release
Please remember that "RC2" is an annotation. If the vote passes, these
artefacts will be released as Apache CouchDB 3.1.1.
Because of the weekend, this vote will remain open until 5PM ET (UTC-4),
Tuesday, 15 September 2020.
Please cast your votes now.
Thanks,
Joan "once more unto the breech, dear friends" Touzet
