RC1 now stands to be tagged tomorrow, and patches that are being
targeted for a back port include,

1) https://review.gluster.org/c/glusterfs/+/21314 (snapshot volfile in
mux cases)

@RaBhat working on this.

2) Py3 corrections in master

@Kotresh are all changes made to master backported to release-5 (may not
be merged, but looking at if they are backported and ready for merge)?

3) Release notes review and updates with GD2 content pending

@Kaushal/GD2 team can we get the updates as required?
https://review.gluster.org/c/glusterfs/+/21303

4) This bug [2] was filed when we released 4.0.

The issue has not bitten us in 4.0 or in 4.1 (yet!) (i.e the options
missing and hence post-upgrade clients failing the mount). This is
possibly the last chance to fix it.

Glusterd and protocol maintainers, can you chime in, if this bug needs
to be and can be fixed? (thanks to @anoopcs for pointing it out to me)

The tracker bug [1] does not have any other blockers against it, hence
assuming we are not tracking/waiting on anything other than the set above.

Thanks,
Shyam
