I'm using GA in a couple of repositories and I find them very handy, but I usually had to make a couple of releases before getting all the details right, which looks awkward to do with a high profile project like *xarray*.

We could try release one or more release candidates and go for `v0.18.0` only after we are sure the GA release procedure is working though.","{""total_count"": 1, ""+1"": 1, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,870292042
