FYI @iffyio I plan to make a release candidate hopefully the week of April 28 -- I am not going to be able to do it next week as I am out

If anyone else wants to start preparing the release (e.g. release notes, version PR etc) that would be great

[iffyio]

Ah sure! I can prep the release during next week!

@iffyio do you think we are ready to make a release candidate? Specifically is there any other PR you think we should try and get into this release?

If not, I'll plan to update the changelog pr #1822, merge it, and then make a release candidate. Please just let me know!

[iffyio]

@alamb yeah I think we should be good to make a release candidate!

I have made a release candidate and started voting!
