All, We should clean up some of our old releases out of the dist area. Note that old releases (all of the way back to 0.1.0 are available on from the archive https://archive.apache.org/dist/hadoop/common/ .
The current contents: - hadoop-1.2.1 - hadoop-2.6.5 - hadoop-2.7.4 - hadoop-2.7.5 - hadoop-2.8.1 - hadoop-2.8.2 - hadoop-2.8.3 - hadoop-2.9.0 - hadoop-3.0.0 - hadoop-3.0.0-alpha4 - hadoop-3.0.0-beta1 The Apache Release Process https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html says that we should only keep the latest release on each branch. That would take us to: - hadoop-1.2.1 - hadoop-2.6.5 - hadoop-2.7.5 - hadoop-2.8.3 - hadoop-2.9.0 - hadoop-3.0.0 Branch-1.2 last received a commit in 2014. I'd propose that we remove it. - hadoop-2.6.5 - hadoop-2.7.5 - hadoop-2.8.3 - hadoop-2.9.0 - hadoop-3.0.0 Since the remaining branches (2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, and 3.0) all have commits within the last couple months, we should probably keep them. Thoughts? Owen
