This document builds on the Airflow 3.0 release, to layout the next set of releases which build on the foundation of Airflow 3.0, starting with Airflow 3.1. This is very much a living document, which will be updated based on the community discussions and decisions, as well as development progress. Everything detailed here, especially scope and expected timelines are "statements of intent" to enable consistent visibility into the status and goals of the project.
The community discussions about Airflow 3 happen in the following places:

Airflow 3 adoption feedback
Following up from the devlist discussion, this is to deliberately spend a month (roughly mid-Oct to mid-Nov) to focus on the adoption feedback. There are many sources of input here, but absolutely include user feedback from the Airflow summit, Github issues and discussions, Slack feedback and questions, etc.
More details will be added here, but the delivery mechanism will be a combination of 3.1.x patch releases, doc changes, utility enhancements (such as to the ruff based upgrade util), and so on.
