This is the first alpha in a series of planned alphas and betas leading up to a 3.0.0 GA release. The intention is to “release early, release often” to quickly iterate on feedback collected from downstream users.
Please note that alpha releases come with no guarantees of quality or API stability, and are not intended for production use.
Users are encouraged to read the overview of major changes coming in 3.0.0. The full set of release notes and changelog detail all the changes since the previous minor release 2.7.0.
