Hi!

One minor note. The RELEASE-NOTES-1.28 was not updated prior to release and
still mentions that the software is an alpha/beta and not suitable for
production use.

It certainly is, and I apologize for the oversight. This is fixed in the
REL1_28 release branch and will be included in a 1.28.1, if/when it's
announced (I didn't figure a whole release bump was necessary for a
documentation fix).

Sorry if this caused any confusion!

-Chad
