@CloseChoice as you suggest, shall we go ahead and make a patch release? Specifically to release #3616.

It would also help to ensure the recently completed PRs have suitable labels and titles.

Hi connor,
I don't quite understand, isn't #3616 already released in 0.45.1? At least I see this as a milestone the issue.

At the time of my comment, 0.45.1 hadn't been released and I just wanted to confirm whether you were happy for the release to proceed. I went ahead and triggered it yesterday, so yep your bug fix for that issue is on PyPI now.

[CloseChoice]

perfect, totally fine with me. Sorry I didn't do much coding and maintaining the past 2 weeks so I didn't look into the shap issues. Glad that you handled that ;)

[connortann]

No problem. Apologies on my end for also being quite busy recently; I hope to get on top of some recent issues and PRs this week.
