Hi,
GNOME 44.rc is now available! Final release is now very close
Sorry for the slight delay, we discovered a problem in the GNOME OS startup but that should be fixed now with the patch for mutter here: [1] (thanks Carlos for helping with the investigation and the fix). You can see all the tests passing now in our openQA instance at openQA: gnomeos-master-iso-x86_64-gnomeos@qemu_x86_64 test results 
We remind you we are string frozen, no string changes may be made without confirmation from the l10n team.
Hard code freeze is also in place, no source code changes can be made without approval from the release-team. If you need to request any of the above, see ReleasePlanning/RequestingFreezeBreaks - GNOME Wiki!
Also remember you can use the 44beta branch of the flatpak runtimes, which is now available on Flathub beta.
Important links:
- GNOME OS image for testing and porting extensions. This is meant to be installed in a virtual machine with EFI support (such as the GNOME Boxes version available on Flathub).
