Release 5.2.0 Soon?

[jcburley]

Given the recent security update to x/net, we're looking to release some of our (Internet-facing) Golang services with all the pending upgrades ASAP.

As we need the recent change to export Validator, is a Release contemplated anytime soon (like, real soon), so we can finally get our pending JWT v4->v5 upgrade off our backs and catch two birds with one trap, so to speak?

Just wondering...and hopeful that the answer is (say) "yes, by Monday Dec 4th".

Ye sure, we can cut a release. I'll do it today or tomorrow, cc @oxisto fyi

Done, hopefully this unblocks you. https://github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/releases/tag/v5.2.0

Looking good so far — just merged and released our core Golang package with this upgrade, so there'll likely be a bunch of Renovate PRs generated for our various Golang services to upgrade that package.

Thanks!!
