We just fixed a fairly serious bug with counter (CASSANDRA-3006 -- it is serious in that it "corrupt" counters). Cassandra 0.8.3 also shipped with a potential small upgrade problem (CASSANDRA-3011). There is no reason to wait to give those to users (especially the counter fix), so I propose the following artifacts for release as 0.8.4.
SVN: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cassandra/branches/cassandra-0.8@r1156253 Artifacts: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecassandra-015/org/apache/cassandra/apache-cassandra/0.8.4/ Staging repository: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecassandra-015/ The artifacts as well as a debian package are also available here: http://people.apache.org/~slebresne/ Because 0.8.3 has been release only 2 days ago, there hasn't been many changes since then, and the said change are mainly trivial, so I propose an expedited vote of 24 hours (longer if needed).
