Dear all,
We just created created the 2020.07 release branch [1], so we are now officially in feature freeze for the upcoming release. This means from now on only bug fixes will be backported to the 2020.01-branch. New features can of course still be merged into master during this period. High impact PRs during the soft feature freeze can now also again be merged into master.
The test tracking issue of release candidate 1 [2] is opened. Help with testing and resources for the testing is as always very welcome. We are now closer than ever to automate most of the release testing [3], but some stuff still needs to be run manually. So if you want to help, please put your name after the corresponding item in the linked issue to streamline the testing efforts.
Thanks all for the work done so far!
Best regards, Martine
