Finally, time for the 3.14.0rc3 release: originally planned for Tuesday, moved to Wednesday to better fit the schedule, moved to Thursday to give the SC an extra day to decide on a potential revert. Next RM @savannah.dev joined in to watch the process and ask questions. 🥧
Then a quick core․py recording with Pablo and @ambv before heading up to Manchester for #PyConUK! 🐝
Thanks again to Diego Russo and Arm for hosting us! 🦾
