Hi Jingsong and Paimon community, Thanks for the update and your efforts on the release. With September 15 approaching, I wanted to follow up: is there now a concrete target date or schedule for the Apache Paimon 2.1.0 release?
It would be helpful to know the expected release date so we can coordinate our integration plans. Thanks!
