What's the focus over the next two weeks Finishing the work on SOCKS5 exceptions and fixing the unified test runner 2026-04-23 - 🔴 Roadblock Engineer: Nabil Hachicha Cost updated to reflect a week buffer for remaining PRs feedback reviews. Last two weeks:  JAVA-5950 Exponential backoff for convenient API (in review, final nit-picks): Updated the wrapped timeout exception DRIVERS-3436 to keep CSOT and non-CSOT backpressure timeouts semantically distinct, incorporating review feedback from Valentin & Slav. JAVA-5949 CMAP & SDAM changes (in review): moved backpressure labels to the CMAP layer, excluded DNS lookup failures from backpressure accounting, and updated prose + unified tests to match the latest spec. Align work with DRIVERS-3218 and DRIVERS-3367 . Removed the dependency on JAVA-6033 so heartbeat-related changes can proceed independently of the backpressure work. Review throughput: Walked Slav through JAVA-5950 to accelerate primary review Team Code reviews ~2 days What's the focus over the next two weeks Drive 1899 and 1900 to approval and merge, addressing any remaining review feedback. 2026-04-13 - 🔴 Roadblock Engineer: Nabil Hachicha Cost updated to reflect the work done to implement a spec update (details below) - not initially planned.
