Hello, Last Tuesday was our second bi-weekly.
You can read up the outcome in the confluence wiki page [1]. *Feature freeze date* As we didn't come to a clear agreement, we will keep the anticipated feature freeze date as it is at early August. *Build stability* The good thing: we decreased the number of issues, the not so good thing: only by ten. We as a community need to put further effort into this. *Dependencies* We'd like to ask all contributors to have a look at the components they are heavily Involved with to see if any dependencies require updating. There were some Issues recently to pass the security scans by some of the users. In future this should somehow be a default at the beginning of every release cycle. *Criteria for merging PRs* We want to avoid merging PRs with unrelated CI failures. We are quite aware that we need to raise the importance of the Docker caching issue. What can you do to make the Flink 1.14. release a good one: * Identify and update outdated dependencies * Get rid of test instabilities * Don't merge PRs including unrelated CI failures Best, Joe [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/1.14+Release
