Yes, I agree, it's a good idea. But it depends on the features freeze time. cherry-picking fix it ok, but does not work for BIG PRs with protocol changes, API changes, such huge changes might introduce new problems during the cherry-picking.
After the features are completed, I will create the new 2.10 branch, and only apply the critical bug fixes, regression fixes. So that we can have adequate testing on branch-2.10 Thanks, Penghui On Wed, Feb 9, 2022 at 4:30 PM Enrico Olivelli <eolive...@gmail.com> wrote: > PengHui, > There is a recent discussion with Matteo (at the community meetings) > about preparing the release branch a couple of weeks before sending > out the official VOTE. > > What about creating the branch-2.10 as soon as possible? > We will commit to that branch only the fixes needed to make 2.10.0 stable > This way we will be free to commit new stuff to master branch without > impacting the stability of 2.10 > > This way people can start validating 2.10 seriously in order to catch > problems before sending out the RC > > Does it sound like a good idea to you ? > Enrico > > Il giorno mer 9 feb 2022 alle ore 09:25 PengHui Li > <peng...@apache.org> ha scritto: > > > > Hi all, > > > > Sorry for the late reply, due to my vacation these days, we got a delay > > here. > > > > Most of the changes of 2.10.0 are getting merged, for now, there are 14 > > opened PRs(10 approved) > > > https://github.com/apache/pulsar/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+milestone%3A2.10.0 > > > > I will take care of them and try to get them merged. > > After the above PRs get merged, I will build the release and start the > vote. > > Please let me know if you have any questions about the 2.10.0 release. > > And, also looking forward to more people taking a look at the opened PRs. > > > > Regards, > > Penghui > > > > > > > > > > On Tue, Jan 4, 2022 at 7:56 AM Sijie Guo <guosi...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > +1. > > > > > > All make sense to me! > > > > > > We probably need to move to the feature frozen stage in order to cut a > > > release at the end of January. > > > > > > - Sijie > > > > > > On Sun, Dec 26, 2021 at 8:46 PM PengHui Li <peng...@apache.org> wrote: > > > > > > > Hi, everyone > > > > > > > > I hope you’ve all been doing well.
