Pending:

• [x] https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/3641 will be RC2 or maybe it is just a misconfigured server

[tobiasKaminsky]

I'll do 3.5.1 RC1 tomorrow.

[AndyScherzinger]

Godspeed 👍

[AndyScherzinger]

I did the 1.3.4 lib release

[tobiasKaminsky]

RC1 released

[AndyScherzinger]

@tobiasKaminsky can you check the translations? they haven't been pullled into the stable branch since 27 days ago? I thought the bot would push them to the stable branch automatically while it seems it doesn't happen or does still still have to be done manually?

[tobiasKaminsky]

Currently we have to do it manually.
But indeed this is a good idea to automate it.

[tobiasKaminsky]

3.5.1 RC2 released yesterday, especially for Transifex this is good to have an additional RC2.
As changes were really small, I think it is fine to release 3.5.1 on Friday, if nothing pops ups.
