Hi Enrico, This is a good suggestion. Currently, every release includes both release notes and a blog post. But they are not included in the voting process.
Since it requires a change to the current release process. I'd defer it to a formal discussion after 2.7.0 on how to improve the release process. At the same time, Penghui can provide the pull requests on the release notes and the blog post. - Sijie On Mon, Nov 23, 2020 at 5:28 AM Enrico Olivelli <eolive...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > Thank you for putting this together ! > > Is there any way to have a meaningful list of highlights of this new > release ? > > I have followed the development and probably I know the contents of this > release, but the Pulsar project is huge, and > the link to github refers to too many details. > For instance we have support for Transactions, we changed the layout of the > repository and we have the upgrade of BookKeeper to 4.12.0 > > IMHO it is important to help the people who are testing the release to know > what to expect during the upgrade. > In the BK community we usually attach links to the release notes for > instance. > > In the meanwhile I am testing this RC > > Enrico > > Il giorno lun 23 nov 2020 alle ore 01:32 PengHui Li <peng...@apache.org> > ha > scritto: > > > This is the first release candidate for Apache Pulsar, version 2.7.0. > > > > It fixes the following > > issues:https://github.com/apache/pulsar/milestone/28?closed=1 > > > > *** Please download, test and vote on this release.
