Michael,
Thank you very much, that level of detail is what I was hoping to get. From
your response, it sounds as though a formal 4.1.x release would not be before
May and there is an excellent chance it would be June or later. May I ask that
the info posted on the Downloads page get an update to reflect this more
current timeline? Right now, it says the following:
Apache Cassandra 3.0
Released on 2021-02-01, and supported until 4.1 release (April
2022).
Thanks again, very helpful...
Regards,

We are trying to get on 3.11.x prior to earlier releases going eol and a more
specific date then April would be of great help in our project planning. Even
if it is the classic s/w answer of eom. Thanks…

Apologies Sean, this is not something the community can provide an exact
date on.
The community's agreed plan is to make the first cut of 4.1 in May. This
may be 4.1-alpha1 or 4.1-beta1. From there the time it takes to get to 4.1-rc1
and 4.1.0 we do not know.
Also, my understanding is that the community will maintain 3.0.x until
4.1.0 is formally released.
