• Bridge release  
  • Airflow 1.10.14 to be built this week and vote started to release next week.
  • Airflow 1.10.13 was released last week, but critical bug discovered after release.
• Upgrade Checks
  • First version of upgrade-check released last week.
  • Additional checks and enhancements to support custom checks being added.
• Airflow DB upgrade
  • The topic of Airflow Database migration was brought up and discussed.
  • We agreed that it would be ideal to recommend this approach for upgrading from 1.10.14 to 2.0, but we need to add a FAQ around how long this database upgrade would take and what possible steps could be taken to reduce this time.
  • For example, by running a script or a DAG to reduce the amount of task history before the database upgrade.
  • A collection of FAQs around this would be important to have as part of the 2.0 release. 
  • Vikram to add issues to capture this.
• Airflow 2.0 Release Candidate: 
  • Overall feedback on Airflow 2.0 core is positive, but polishing still needed.
  • Targeting RC1 build creation to start in the middle of next week.
  • Command line PR not yet merged, but would be good to have in RC1. 
  • Documentation work is ongoing, would be good to clean up before RC1 release.
• Milestone Issue Cleanup
  • Issues currently tagged for 2.0 RC1 should be cleaned up.
  • Those which are not core such as Providers or upgrade scripts, should be tagged for those milestones rather than the 2.0 core RC1 milestone. 
  • All of us to do this cleanup this week and review any open items next Monday.
