For when is the release scheduled?

[dprittie]

@SuperQ - is it too late to get #4135 or #4160 into this release?

The issue either of those PRs solves was highlighted in #4024 (#4024 (comment)) but I think just accidentally missed.

I think for many people the new msteamsv2 receiver feature is functionally useless in production as it will cause receivers of MS Teams notifications to lose alert data depending on line lengths/screen widths.

[SuperQ]

I'll take a look, I have two other PRs that might be worth getting in.
