Dear community: This is a call for vote to release apache-tvm-ffi version v0.1.14. The main highlights of this release are
* Structural transformation APIs — StructuralMutator recursively transforms reflected object graphs, with structural_map providing a typed callback interface for compiler passes, alongside maybe_inplace_mutate and var_remap. This completes the structural family next to the existing equality, hashing, and walking APIs. * Opaque pointer handler map — third-party extension types that cannot define or accept monkey-patching of __tvm_ffi_opaque_ptr__ can now participate in opaque-pointer conversion via tvm_ffi.core._OPAQUE_PTR_HANDLERS, without changing their owning package. * Stronger static typing through Any — static object type bounds are now propagated across ObjectPtr, ObjectRef, and raw-object conversions into Any and AnyView, while runtime validation for unconstrained values is unchanged. * Rust structural and object binding support — all four structural operations (walk, visit, map, mutate) gain typed callbacks and a #[dispatch(...)] frontend; the object binding runtime adds zero-copy upcasts, identity comparison, and reflection-table method lookup; and containers now hold heterogeneous Any elements. * Correctness fixes — Python annotation metadata is stabilized across versions, and ffi.Error is now picklable so FFI-originated exceptions survive round-tripping.
