Hello all, I'd like to prepare a DataFusion 54.1.0 release in the coming days. Please propose changes you'd like to backport based on the backport criteria at https://datafusion.apache.org/contributor-guide/release_management.html#backport-criteria. I will soften the wording there based on recent discussion and say that performance PRs with a small blast radius (subjective) that are easy to cherry-pick, easy to review, and do not change behavior are fair game as well.
Please propose changes you'd like to see backported, and possibly even help with the backport efforts! We also have a discussion topic at https://github.com/apache/datafusion/issues/22547. Thank you! -Matt Butrovich
