Hi Christopher, is this you on GitHub with one pull request to Biopython
already?

https://github.com/chebizarro
https://github.com/biopython/biopython/pull/2349

Some of the release steps need accounts or write permissions, but we could
do most of it via pull requests so that doesn't stop you taking a very
active role.

First is working out what if any blocking issues remain to be addressed
before calling a commit freeze and doing the release. Do you have any
thoughts on this? Even additional eyes on the open issues and pull requests
would be helpful there.

Thank you,

Peter
