CI seems to fail for reasons not related to my changes 🤔

Hi. First of all, thank you for contributing to Poetry. However, since we are focusing on the 1.2 release, we won't be doing any more releases of version 1.1 (unless there are some breaking changes in 3rd party APIs like it was with 1.1.14). Backporting changes to an old version makes little sense since it probably will never be released.

Thanks for the response! I'll stick with poetry-core from my git branch at work for now, as this speedup is critical for us. Combined, my four pull requests drop poetry lock --no-update from 7 minutes to just 3 seconds.

What is the release schedule for 1.2 branch? And can you please review my PRs that add new improvements to master?

Thanks.

We're working on catching up on reviews, but the last month has seen most of the team dealing with IRL priorities including health, work, and family -- we're still committed to getting this release out as soon as we are able, and to much smaller releases in the future to avoid similar pain.

Thanks! I've subscribed to that thread.

I will close this to reduce noise in PRs
