TODO
The blog post process isn't automated. The rough set of steps we usually take
are:

* Clone https://github.com/apache/arrow-site.
* Create a new branch off ``main`` for the blog post pull request we're
creating.
* Duplicate a recent blog post entry in the ``_posts`` subfolder and update
the filename and YAML metadata.

* Set the date in the filename and in the YAML metadata to the date that the
release candidate vote thread for the release closed.

* *For minor releases only*, remove any section about community updates (new
committers, PMC members, etc).
* Update the remainder of the text as needed
* Create the pull request
* In the pull request, ping contributors in each section requesting help
filling in the details for each section.
