Release v1.17.6+suite.1

The next suite version v1.17.6+suite.1 is planned for release in Apr 2021. It was delayed one month due to a security fork preventing us from releasing cyberark/conjur.

The target dates are as follows:

  • Kick off held Apr 27, 2022.
  • Hand off to Technical Writers by May 13, 2022.
  • Release by May 20, 2022.
