 * Hello [@mikewps](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikewps/),
 * I’m afraid we do not have an ETA for the next release or the hotfix release too
   as of now but it should be really soon. I would be keeping myself in the loop
   to check for the hotfix on regular intervals and will let you know once the hotfix
   is released.
 * Should you have any doubts or need any help further, feel free to reply in the
   thread below and we would be happy to help!
 * Regards,
    Prathamesh Palve
