v0.3.0

in addition to continuous work on Model Catalog feature and other improvements, there are two major capabilities in this periodic release:

• add logical model entities for Experiments and Run (#1224 (comment))
• the definitive parting ways with Google MLMD dependency (even in the no-longer-active code branches)

As anticipated in community, this release is therefore designated as v0.3.0.

Note: no special action needed with regards to the MLMD removal, in previous versions we already not relying on MLMD any longer, but an admin could have re-opted-in; with this v0.3.0, there will be no option to re-opt-in to avoid maintenance costs.

To keep up-to-date with the latest changes you can follow on our repo and our Milestone tracker.
