4.4.1 seems to be live, is there a chance you circumvented the automated release flow when landing? let me know if you have any questions about how this works.

As soon as you land a release PR like this, a publication should eventually happen (releases don't happen after 5PM PDT).

@bcoe yeah this was my fault. We needed to get a version out to a customer asap so since the release wasn't progressing on its own, I triggered the release manually. What I didn't realize was that releases don't happen after 5PM PDT.

Going forwards, to help customers outside of the US, sometimes we may need to do this type of thing. Let me know if we could configure the releases to happen any time of the day.

@skuruppu totally understand 👍 I'm actually in the process of rewriting some of our publication automation, and haven't written the post 5PM restriction yet ... good time to discuss an alternative approach.
