I have finished the initiatives I had wanted to complete for this release and am now going through the list of open issues and PRs. I am hopeful that I can complete that in the next couple of days.
So I am targeting running the release build on Sunday sometime. https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/pull/753 looks to me like it is important to make in the release so it would be nice if some of us could look at it. Ralph
