Jazzy Release Thread

This thread will cover Jazzy release planning.

Due to the merging of #3143, which fixes a relatively critical bug, I think we're on track for another Jazzy release even if the latest one hasn't even made it.

Even though 2.12.0 is still queued up for the next Jazzy and Rolling syncs, what I'm thinking is to do a 2.12.1 specifically for Jazzy, whereas Rolling can just hang out until we decide to do a 2.13.0.

The sync will likely be end of December 2024, as the last 2 syncs were on October 18 and November 21.

Thoughts?

Yeah, that seems like a pretty critical bugfix and worth another release (especially since the regression will be new to 2.12.0 AFAICT)

... and it's queued up!
