Dear Apache Doris Community,

I am pleased to announce the upcoming release of Doris MCP Server v0.3.0,
this is also the first release of Doris MCP. a major milestone that
introduces significant architectural improvements and enterprise-grade
features for Apache Doris integration with Model Context Protocol (MCP)
clients.
