Hi everyone,

For a first time, things went amazingly smooth with Zoom and having a good
exchange and participation.

Scott already provided the link but I'll just offer up a quick summary from
the meeting notes and an easy reminder for those that volunteered for
something.

All notes and link to recorded video can be found here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/Apache+Cassandra+Contributor+Meeting

*Meeting Notes:*

The community and contributors remain focussed on the 4.0 release. There
was broad consensus that we want to keep working towards the 4.0 QA Test
Plan
<https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/4.0+Quality%3A+Components+and+Test+Plans>
and a call for contributors to sign up for major components. We also
touched on a number of other process discussions and agreed to take a few
discussions to the mailing list.

Action Items:

   - *All contributors:* please sign up as either shepherds or contributors
   on the test plan. If we want 4.0 to happen we must get at least minimal
   coverage of these areas.


   - Ahead of next call, review open tickets with “patch available” for
   Alpha and seek reviewers; for unassigned tickets, seek assignees or open
   discussion on scope.
   - Discuss on dev list:
      - Thread regarding when to branch for a post-4.0 release.
      - Cadence of meeting: Consensus on call was “once a month, at an
      earlier time to enable more from European time zones to join - likely
      rotating.”
      - Windows question: potentially a question to the user@ list if there
      are contributors willing to test / contribute patches for Windows.
      - Jeremy Hanna: Discuss changes to defaults prior to 4.0 release.
   - Patrick McFadin: Start discussion on dev list to settle time for next
   meetings and frequency.
   - Anthony raising need for Reaper compatibility testing to other Reaper
   contributors; will note compatibility issues identified (in case they
   warrant a change in C* itself).
   - Josh preparing JIRA epics that capture current headings in the
   Confluence “4.0 open issues” report.

I will start a separate thread about the time and frequency. Any general
feedback/suggestions about the logistics of the meeting can be done in this
thread.

Patrick
