Hi Ben,

What are the current plans / schedule for 9.0.1?

Hi George, At the moment things are blocked on a solution to #17760, which I am currently in the process of working through. There have been several false-starts on this ticket and while the solution we are ending up with is indeed a compromise (in both performance impact and convenience), I am fairly convinced it is the best we can do. I am waiting for a version of the patch to validate as we speak. As soon as it (and a few other relevant patches) have been backported I will move ahead with cutting the release candidate. I hope this can happen by the end of the week. Cheers, - Ben
