Dick, thank you for stepping up! I think it's great to cut the branch sooner rather than later. There already is GEODE-7012 which introduces a distributed deadlock during startup. That seems like a critical issue to fix. That should be able to happen after we cut the branch though.
Karen, I wonder if that could be merged after the branch got cut, but also wonder if that fits our "critical issue" rule for being merged after the branch has been cut or hold up the release. This has been broken since a very long time. Thoughts?
