Hi Devs! We are on track for our planned 1.0.0 release timeline. There are no outstanding blocker issues on JIRA for the release.
There are 3 outstanding new feature PRs. They are all in pretty good shape and should be merged within a day: https://github.com/apache/flink-kubernetes-operator/pull/213 https://github.com/apache/flink-kubernetes-operator/pull/216 https://github.com/apache/flink-kubernetes-operator/pull/217 As we agreed previously we should not merge any more new features for 1.0.0 and focus our efforts on testing, bug fixes and documentation for this week. I will cut the release branch tomorrow once these PRs are merged. And the target day for the first release candidate is next Monday. The release managers for this release will be Yang Wang and myself.
