SGTM, +1. Thanks for volunteering as RM.
One thing to flag: There are currently several pull requests tagged ‘fix’ that still require review. I suggest including them in this release. Could we consider setting a feature freeze on 23 August to allow sufficient time for review? This should not affect our target of completing the community vote by the end of August.
