Hey all,

It's release day and here is -rc2. I think I still have a few things that I'll see if look OK to sneak in to master rather than waiting, at this point. But mostly things for next. Which will be re-synced with current top of tree shortly.

In terms of a changelog, git log --merges v2024.10-rc1..v2024.10-rc2 contains what I've pulled but as always, better PR messages and tags will provide better results here.

I hope to remain on schedule and that means the rest of the rcs every other Monday, and with final release on Monday, October 7th, 2024. Thanks all!
