I think that's fine, with the exception of fixing the ROMIO packaging issue - which is a blocker (the release will not build without it fixed): - https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/issues/11364 <https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/issues/11364>

In the interest of having 5.0.0 released, we must put a hard stop on diagnosing and ingesting bug fixes. We can have these be brought in during later bugfix releases. Due to the low attendance during the meeting today and lack of Jeff, Brian, 5.0.x release managers, I wanted to re-iterate on this through e-mail to get wider buy-in. Please levy any objections to this here. Thanks, William -- Josh Hursey IBM Spectrum MPI Developer
