Thanks Akira and Karthik for replies.
If there is no significant benefit over current branch-2.8 ,re-cutting will be an good idea, As we can reduce the maintenance effort. --Brahma Reddy Battula -----Original Message----- From: Akira Ajisaka [mailto:ajisa...@oss.nttdata.co.jp] Sent: 31 October 2016 14:06 To: Karthik Kambatla Cc: Brahma Reddy Battula; Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli; common-dev@hadoop.apache.org; hdfs-...@hadoop.apache.org; mapreduce-...@hadoop.apache.org; yarn-...@hadoop.apache.org Subject: Re: Updated 2.8.0-SNAPSHOT artifact Thanks Karthik for the comment. Pros: * (Probably) we can release 2.8.0 earlier. * New feature in 2.8.0 will be available sooner. * We can deprecate APIs sooner. After 2.8.0 is released, we can remove them from trunk. Cons: * Maintenance cost becomes higher because # of branches becomes more. * New feature in 2.9.0 will be available later I'm okay with either releasing current branch-2.8 or re-cutting it.
