  2. Low risk critical fixes for: silent correctness, backwards compatibility, crashes, deadlocks, (large) memory leaks
  3. Fixes to new features being introduced in 2.1.0 release
  4. Documentation improvements
  5. Release branch specific changes (e.g. blocking ci fixes, change version identifiers)
