Hi all, Given there have been no objections for the release dates, I'd like to go ahead and call the code-freeze today.
We will be focusing on merging the existing PRs in the code-freeze week: Deploying multi-arch docker images: https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/pull/2007 Incorrect result caused by has(key, predicate): https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/pull/2017 Fixing a couple mergeV/E issues: https://github.com/apache/tinkerpop/pull/2036 Please let us know if there are other PRs you'd like to be merged. Note that we would not be considering large feature additions.
