I'm sorry to hear that things have been stressful.

FWIW, I don't see a huge rush here.  Emacs 31 is still far away, and
while some package authors are meticulously tracking master, an effort
that is of course greatly appreciated, the overwhelming majority don't.
So this won't affect the lions share of Emacs Lisp users any time soon.

That is to say, please take your time.  The last thing we want is for
you or anyone else to burn out.
