PostgreSQL 19 Beta 4 release date

Hi,

PostgreSQL 19 Beta 4 will be released on September 24, 2026. Please aim
to have open items closed before the release commit freeze on 2026-09-19
12:00 UTC.

You may notice that we're doing a Beta 4 a bit later than normal this
year. This is primarily due to handling the influx of issues that have
been reported that have taken additional time to handle (e.g.[1]). The
current goal is to try to get PostgreSQL 19 to GA by the end of October
so we can try to stay on our usual schedule of being within the Sept/Oct
timeframe for GA.

(Separately - I'll also be kicking off the press release creation/review
process shortly now that we have dates more firmed up).

Thanks for helping to make the PostgreSQL 19 GA a success!

Jonathan
