Hi Everyone, [Board] The board can be found here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355
[New Tickets] In the last 7 days we have opened 7 new tickets and closed 1. 2 were in Alpha (including the one that was closed) and the remaining were assigned to Beta. Please remember to be thoughtful about what Fix Version you assign a ticket to as we get closer to being able to release beta1. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CASSANDRA/Release+Lifecycle [Tickets That Need Attention] There are 4 alpha issues and 33 beta issues that need attention. Of the 4 alpha tickets, 2 are in review, 1 is being actively worked on and the last is blocked by the ongoing work. The number of beta tickets is considerably higher than our last status update primarily due to tickets being re-assigned from rc but we have also created 5 new beta issues in the last 7 days that need attention. [Needs Reviewer] 2 tickets assigned to Alpha are looking for reviewers: - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15848: Fully purged static row causes NPE in repaired data tracking - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15792: test_speculative_data_request - read_repair_test.TestSpeculativeReadRepair 5 tickets assigned to Beta are looking for reviewers: - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15229: BufferPool Regression - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15838: Add deb and rpm packaging to artifacts test script - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15833: Unresolvable false digest mismatch during upgrade due to CASSANDRA-10657 - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15842: Fix flaky org.apache.cassandra.schema.SchemaTest.testTransKsMigration-cdc - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15841: Fix flaky junit.framework.TestSuite.org.apache.cassandra.io.sstable.CQLSSTableWriterTest-cdc [Alpha Status] There are 11 tickets not marked done that are assigned to Alpha (down from 17 at the time of the last status update). The issues are comprised of interface-breaking changes, flaky tests, and a critical bug. [Beta Status] There are 41 issues not marked done that are assigned to Beta (up from 38 at the time of the last status update). These tickets are primarily comprised of the testing epic work, known regressions, planned improvements, and flaky tests.
