Team, Sorry for the delays in wrapping up the 1.16 release from earlier last week. We had great vote turnout and it was definitely a large release in terms of features/etc..
Watching evolution on the 1.17 line since it is clear we can benefit from a 1.16.1 release so I've started preparing that and will closely monitor candidates for inclusion. The branch is pushed and is called 'support/nifi-1.16'. I've already pulled in everything on 1.17 that looks like it can work in a pure 3rd digit release. Some of this makes sense due to bugs found and or natural concerns of scanners for things like springshell/etc.. In any case it is always good to tighten up the release lines if time permits. I'll probably start the release process tomorrow or Wednesday. Will watch for anything that comes in. Thanks
