Mick,
This sounds like a good plan. CEP-33 and 34 are ready to go. We're
running into CI related issues but once they clear up we'll merge
them. I anticipate we'll be done in a week's time.
Thanks,
Dinesh

The previous thread¹ on when to freeze 5.0 landed on freezing the
first week of August, with a waiver in place for TCM and Accord to
land later (but before October).
With JDK8 now dropped and SAI and UCS merged, the only expected 5.0
work that hasn't landed is Vector search (CEP-30).
Are there any objections to a waiver on Vector search? All the
groundwork: SAI and the vector type; has been merged, with all
remaining work expected to land in August.
I'm keen to freeze and see us shift gears – there's already SO MUCH
in 5.0 and a long list of flakies. It takes time and patience to
triage and identify the bugs that hit us before GA. The freeze is
about being "mostly feature complete", so we have room for things
before our first beta (precedence is to ask). If we hope for a GA
by December, account for the 6 weeks turnaround time for cutting and
voting on one alpha, one beta, and one rc release, and the quiet
period that August is, we really only have September and October left.
I already feel this is asking a bit of a miracle from us given how
4.1 went (and I'm hoping I will be proven wrong).
In addition, are there any objections to cutting an 5.0-alpha1
release as soon as we freeze?
This is on the understanding vector, tcm and accord will become
available in later alphas. Originally the discussion¹ was waiting
for Accord for alpha1, but a number of folk off-list have requested
earlier alphas to help with testing.
