Hello,

My plan is to proceed with prometheus/prometheus in the second half of
February. I am basically waiting for the 2.25 release first.

Then, the master branch would be renamed to main.

BEFORE THE CHANGE:

1. An issue will be created in the github repo and "pinned", to better
inform our contributors of the change.
2. Our circle orb will gain a public_main action (additionally of the
publish_master)
3. A pull request will be open to change the .circleci config.


CHANGE:

4. The branch is renamed in the github UI.
5. Netlify config is updated (for UI PR's)
6. Merge request 3. (see above) is merged.

AFTER:

After a few days, we close the pinned issue which was there to inform
contributors of the change.


Regards,
