This is a somewhat special vote that requires at least minimal understanding of the patch it is related to [1], since it's also the first release.
This version has to be released _before_ Cassandra version that its future versions are released, since we can't rely on unreleased artifact in Cassandra, since any change in dtest api would break Cassandra builds, which we'd like to avoid. There's a detailed description of the release plan in 15539. If you have any questions and/or concerns, now is the second-best time to raise them. Code: https://github.com/apache/cassandra-in-jvm-dtest-api Artifact: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecassandra-1195/org/apache/cassandra/dtest-api/0.0.3/ The vote will be open for 72 hours (longer if needed). Everyone who has tested the build is invited to vote. Votes by PMC members are considered binding. A vote passes if there are at least three binding +1s. -- Alex [1] https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15539
