New release (4.0.0)

[danielhrisca]

Hello all, is there some target release date for version 4.0.0 final?

[felixdivo]

TL;DR No.

The next release is mostly a matter of finishing #1046, which took longer than expected and therefore the initial goal of (If I remember correctly) June did not work out. I am planning on continuing work this week (see here), so maybe: Soon!

[felixdivo]

Now, #1046 is "only" waiting for reviews of the changes and merges. The implementation is done.

[felixdivo]

Yay, #1046 is complete. I'll provide a release candidate soon (when time permits).

#1216 adds a changelog

[felixdivo]

Waits for a regression to be fixed by #1221. Then there will be version 4.0.0-rc.0 and an announcement issue.

[felixdivo]

Okay, so the blocking #1221 and #1230 are resolved. Everything is implemented for the release.

A new release candidate is available, 4.0.0rc0! 🥳
