It’s been surely quite some months since Quincy 17.2.6 release (April) - I think we’ve all had some issues with the mclock scheduler backfill bug [1] that is patched in the Quincy branch - but not released.

Can I please ask for some plan for Quincy 17.2.7?

I think that’s a bit more than advertised 4-6 weeks (https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/releases/general/#stable-releases-x-2-z)
