The DISCLAIMER as a whole is not valid anymore and should just be removed IMHO (unless there are objections) since it is 100% about incubation.
I will throw my -1 down on RC2 and shucks, what would a release be without at least three release candidates (better than nine I always say) Ok, so VOTE is CANCELLED and I will fix the issues Joel brought up, all good points and easy fixes and worth doing now, thanks!!! For the DISCLAIMER I think we should remove the file entirely https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1122 I should be able to prepare RC3 tomorrow baring zombies, aliens or other unforeseen issues coming up On Thu, Nov 7, 2013 at 2:28 PM, Joel Koshy <jjkosh...@gmail.com> wrote: > Joe, thanks for doing this.
