[Benoit TELLIER <bt...@linagora.com.INVALID>]

I am happy to announce you the vote for the 3.9.0 release did succeed.

The release received 5 positive votes, 4 of them being binding.

Thanks to all contributors, developers and committers who made this
possible!

In the coming hours, I will finalize the release process, namely:

- Publish the maven artifacts
- Publish docker images
- Upgrade the download page and the (old) website
- Announce the release

Cheers,

Benoit TELLIER
