    @Jefffrey @alamb Hi, do you know when it will be released? Will it be in August according to the schedule or earlier?

    I had planned one in August. How I could potentially make one sooner (e.g. in July)

    critical security advisories:

    FWIW my reading of this advisory is that it takes a while to parse pathalogically formed XML documents. quick-xml is used by these crates to parse responses from the cloud providers, and I don't expect them to be sending malformed responses

    In other words, I personally would not rate the RUSTSEC vulnerability as critical; See also

    (but that is just me venting, I know the ecosystem uses this advisory DB and I will endeavor to get a new release out shortly)
