Обсуждение: 2026-02-26 release announcement draft

Hi,

Please see the draft of the 2026-02-26 release announcement. Please 
review for inaccuracies.

For the additional steps related to the `json[b]_strip_nulls()` issue, I 
primarily borrowed from the guidance in the release notes. For users who 
already updated to PG < 18.3, I didn't think it'd be worthwhile to say 
they should `pg_upgrade` to 18.3, given the post-update steps would be 
much less disruptive. However, I'm open to other suggestions for how to 
frame the guidance.

Thanks,

Jonathan

Hi,

>You should also execute this command in the `template0` and `template1` databases so future databases you create in
yourPostgreSQL cluster have the correct function volatility setting. 

Shouldn't it be mentioned that template0 is read only and give instructions how to do this properly?

Daniel

"template0" isn't read-only; it isn't connectable by default. That said, 
this is a good recommendation given the behaviors of these databases. I 
modified the text to include a link to the documentation for more 
information on the core template databases. Please see attached.

Thanks,

Jonathan
