Hi All, As discussed on this list, we've decided to create a release outside the regular 3 monthly release schedule for the ApacheCon announcement and for giving our users a convenient way of trying out the great new features.
This thread is not an official release vote. It is meant for testing the release script and for having a reference version to test against. Also, I hope that we don't need multiple [VOTE] threads. I've started creating a wiki page with a list of steps to verify a release. Please add items if I forgot something: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/Releasing The release artifacts: http://people.apache.org/~rmetzger/flink-0.9.0-milestone-1-rc0/ The staging repository: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheflink-1034 The release commit (currently only in my GitHub account): https://github.com/rmetzger/flink/commit/484df55a42f0708bb5bbbd6c19778e2d7c078f1c Lets collect everything we want to fix for the final release here. Please remember that we have to start the [VOTE] next week, otherwise we'll miss the ApacheCon announcement.
