[QGIS-Developer] Fwd: Urgent: Remove windows 3.10.2 installer from site

[Mathieu Pellerin]

+100 on all that's been said here.

Also, once 3.10.2 is updated to include the updated packages &
above-referred fix, I'd suggest writing a QGIS.org blog post to inform
users of the worthiness of updating to 3.10.2(.2) *ASAP*, and expand a bit
on why 3.10.0/.1 were such rough releases. We can finish the post by
thanking users that have reported bugs (an inevitable nightmare to go
through as QGIS was exposing brand new GDAL3/PROJ6 versions to the masses).
IMHO, we should not skip this communication to our users.
