Hey all,
It's a week after our planned release date, but, we've gotten the issues that had delayed the release sorted out and understood. I want to thank everyone that's contributed to this release, not just in terms of code, but documentation, testing and otherwise ensuring things go as smoothly as they can.
In terms of a changelog, git log --merges v2023.07-rc6..v2023.07 contains what I've pulled since the last RC or: git log --merges v2023.04..v2023.07 for changes since the last full release. As always, more details in pull requests (or the tags referenced by them) will result in more details here.
The merge window is formally open again, and I'll be merging in next shortly. v2023.10 is scheduled for October 2nd, 2023 and the merge window will close and -rc1 will be released on the 24th of July, and then the next window will open with -rc2, two weeks later. I know this means the merge window is slightly shorter than normal but with the next window having been open, I think that's fine.
And I forgot to update the Makefile to drop -rc6. As I've also merged next to master and pushed that out, re-doing the tag seems sub-optimal. If it's important to distribution folks I can make v2023.07.01 which will really _just_ be correcting the Makefile. Or I'm open to other suggestions.
