@pmonks @bact @karsten-klein Let me know if you see any other issues that should be addressed.

Would also appreciate a couple opinions:

• It's been almost a month since we release RC2 and (in my opinion) no new critical bugs have emerged. Should we call the next release official 2.0?
• What should be the version specific for 2.0 - 2.0.0 or 2.0.0-Final?

I'm not a heavy user of this myself but if all the public interfaces will be frozen after this (plus all issues above got fixed), I support having the official release.

• What should be the version specific for 2.0 - 2.0.0 or 2.0.0-Final?

Personally I will avoid "Final".

May be we can create a version milestone, so we can tag all relevant issues/PRs.

We could, but I like having a list in one place across all the repos. The overall release process could really be improved and automated since we have a number of related repos that are typically manually released at the same time.

Version 2.0.0 is now released.
