I should have said locally.

I think the reason that the ci action https://github.com/simonjayhawkins/pandas-release/actions/runs/932775977 is failing for the conda-test maybe due to the conda recipe being removed from the pandas repo in 1.3. This is a separate issue and maybe an error in the "unofficial" ci scripts there. Will investigate further.

the scripts are failing for 1.2.5 now too. so something else has changed in the last few days. not relevant for this PR. yeah we removed the conda recioe

i think we can remove this action as well as the conda recioe is maintained externally  > i think we can remove this action as well as the conda recioe is maintained externally

the action is maintained by me on my personal branch to avoid surprises when doing the release and as a basis for the release automation #21050 and #36704

but that's not relevant to this PR. OK to merge? sure
