I plan to work on `main` until February, finalize recycler implementation, carry out whatever improvement I can, and release `3.0.0`.
*If you have any objections with this plan, or if you have things to do on `main` and you cannot comply with this schedule, etc., let's discuss.* I want to agree on a plan and timeline that works for you. *Personal remark:* I am against releasing `3.0.0` from `main`. `2.x` changes that didn't go into `main` are titanic. `main` also contains several incomplete code, doc, or both. I support the idea of forking `3.x` from `2.x`, backporting crucial features from `main` to `3.x`, and then releasing `3.0.0`. I had several email, Slack, and video conversations with Ralph, Matt, and Piotr. They don't agree with me. Ralph even threatened to veto all non-bugfix changes on `2.x` <https://lists.apache.org/thread/4o9xg0o2csjnf4f372l18f8zjj9c9sy4>. I am outnumbered and I accept the defeat. Let's release `3.0.0` from `main` and move on. I don't want to spend time discussing this subject further.
