We're about due for a new set of back-branch update releases. After some discussion among the packagers, it seems the best window for getting this done before the holiday season sets in is next week.
Also, as previously mentioned, we're experimenting with weekday rather than over-the-weekend release windows, since this is much more convenient for Dave Page and his crew at EDB.
The current plan is to wrap tarballs on Monday Dec 3 for public announcement Thursday Dec 6.
There is one open bug reported by Amit Kapila that I feel is important. I'd investigated this and Simon had volunteered to fix the same.
I'm not sure about the project policies about fixing known bugs before minor releases, but AFAICS this one can lead to corrupt indexes and as a consequence return wrong query results (as shown in the case by Amit). So IMHO we should fix this.
