How about
- Waiting for https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/33971
- Releasing 3.10.3
- Announce on twitter, blog, news panel
Clear cut for everyone (including those 95% of our users not following
[qgis on] twitter)

I think the QGIS twitter account already mentioned that the 3.10.2
installer had been retired due to issues and re-build.

Hi all,
Thanks Mathieu. Should it be 3.10.2 or 3.10.3? Asking because
those who have already downloaded the broken 3.10.2 may not
think to update.
Regards,
Harrissou

Hi Mathieu,
Thanks a lot. It reads very well!
Something that I'd like to add is that in case of
still finding a bug, users should file issues and to
mention proximity of LTR replacement.
If you still happen to find QGIS behaving in an
unexpected way, please let us know on
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues
<https://www.google.com/url?q=https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues&sa=D&source=hangouts&ust=1579773605204000&usg=AFQjCNHP21SO7MPYwrn023vHOeZwMUBKuQ>
as always. We are very happy that QGIS 3.10 is now in
shape to replace 3.4 as LTR in a month time.

Paolo, here's the draft blog post:
*Public Service Announcement: Update to the latest
point release now*
------
QGIS users who have adopted the 3.10 version when
initially released at the end of October 2019 have
likely noticed a sharp drop in reliability. The
underlying issues have now been addressed in 3.10.2,
all users are advised to update *now*.
When QGIS 3.10 was first released in the end of
October 2019, a pair of libraries – namely GDAL and
PROJ – were updated to their next-generation
versions. The advantages are plenty: GeoPDF export[1]
support, more accurate coordinate transformation,
etc. For those interested, more technical information
on this is available here[2].
The update of these crucial libraries led to a number
of regressions. While we expected some issues to
arise, the seriousness of the disruption caught us
off guard. Yet, it was also somewhat inevitable: QGIS
is the first large GIS project to expose these
next-generation libraries to the masses. The large
number of QGIS users across the globe were
essentially stress testing both new code within QGIS
as well as the libraries themselves.
Thanks to dedicated users taking time to file in
report and the community helping out as well as our
project sponsors for allowing us to fund development
time, developers have been able to fix all known
regressions in both in QGIS as well as underlying
GDAL and PROJ libraries, benefiting a large number of
open source projects.
As a result of this collective effort by the
community, QGIS 3.10.2 is now back to being the
reliable and stable GIS software we all love. As
such, we cannot stress enough the important of
updating now.
Once again, thanks to our community of testers,
sponsors, and developers for their countless hours
and efforts in making QGIS better.
Happy mapping!

+100 on all that's been said here.
Also, once 3.10.2 is updated to include the
updated packages & above-referred fix, I'd
suggest writing a QGIS.org blog post to
inform users of the worthiness of updating to
3.10.2(.2) *ASAP*, and expand a bit on why
3.10.0/.1 were such rough releases. We can
finish the post by thanking users that have
reported bugs (an inevitable nightmare to go
through as QGIS was exposing brand new
GDAL3/PROJ6 versions to the masses). IMHO, we
should not skip this communication to our users.

Gosh, will the nightmare ever end...
Let's agree never to change
anything in gdal or proj or qgis ever
again ;)

Subject: Urgent: Remove windows 3.10.2
installer from site
To: qgis-developer
<qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org
<mailto:qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org>>
Can we please remove the 3.10.2 installer
from the website as a matter
of urgency? This installer was released
using the older gdal 3.0.2 and
proj 6.2 versions, which directly lead to
crashes and reprojection
failures in QGIS.
QGIS ********************SHOULD NEVER
EVER*********************** be
used with gdal >= 3 and gdal < 3.0.3 or
proj >6 and proj < 6.3.0.
This combination is a world of hurt for
users :(
Tickets filed at
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/618,
and
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/617,
and later today I'm going
to commit cmake blocks which will
completely prevent compilation under
the affected gdal/proj versions.
Nyall
