Hi everyone, I would like to give you a brief update of the Flink 1.16 release status till 2022-07-19.
Currently, we have 12 features that have been completed for this release and 41 features are still expected to make it. We only have 3 weeks remaining until the feature freeze (at 2022-08-09). We currently have one blocker ticket that is being worked on. Many thanks to these contributors and reviewers. Next, we also have some critical test stability tickets[1] that are not picked up. We need to guarantee the CI stable before the release branch cut. You can either directly assign it to yourself (don't forget to mark it as In Progress) or ping me (@Huang Xingbo) to get it assigned to you. Your help is much appreciated. For more information about Flink release 1.16, you can refer to https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/1.16+Release The next Flink release sync will be on Tuesday the 26th of July at 9am CEST/ 3pm China Standard Time / 7am UTC.

On behalf of all the release managers, best regards, Xingbo [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20FLINK%20AND%20issuetype%20%3D%20Bug%20AND%20status%20in%20(Open%2C%20%22In%20Progress%22%2C%20Reopened)%20AND%20priority%20in%20(Blocker%2C%20Critical)%20AND%20labels%20%3D%20test-stability%20AND%20assignee%20in%20(EMPTY)%20ORDER%20BY%20updated%20DESC%2C%20summary%20DESC
