+1 to base the 2.8.2 release off of the more recent activity on branch-2.8.
Because branch-2.8.2 was cut so long ago it is missing a lot of fixes that are
in branch-2.8. There also are a lot of JIRAs that claim they are fixed in
2.8.2 but are not in branch-2.8.2. Having the 2.8.2 release be based on recent
activity in branch-2.8 would solve both of these issues, and we'd only need to
move the handful of JIRAs that have marked themselves correctly as fixed in
2.8.3 to be fixed in 2.8.2.

Thanks for driving the next 2.8 release, Junping. While I was committing a
blocker for 2.7.4, I noticed some of the jiras are back-ported to 2.7, but
missing in branch-2.8.2. Perhaps it is safer and easier to simply rebranch
2.8.2.
Thanks,Kihwal

Hi all,
Per Vinod's previous email, we just announce Apache Hadoop 2.8.1 get
released today which is a special security release. Now, we should work towards
2.8.2 release which aim for production deployment. The focus obviously is to
fix blocker/critical issues [2], bug-fixes and *no* features / improvements. We
currently have 13 blocker/critical issues, and 10 of them are Patch Available.
I plan to cut an RC in a month - target for releasing before end of Aug., to
give enough time for outstanding blocker / critical issues. Will start moving
out any tickets that are not blockers and/or won't fit the timeline. For
progress of releasing effort, please refer our release wiki [2].
Please share thoughts if you have any. Thanks!
Thanks,
Junping

Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Apache Hadoop 2.8.1 is released
Hi all,
The Apache Hadoop PMC has released version 2.8.1. You can get it from this
page: http://hadoop.apache.org/releases.html#Download
This is a security release in the 2.8.0 release line. It consists of 2.8.0 plus
security fixes. Users on 2.8.0 are encouraged to upgrade to 2.8.1.
Please note that 2.8.x release line continues to be not yet ready for
production use. Critical issues are being ironed out via testing and downstream
adoption. Production users should wait for a subsequent release in the 2.8.x
line.
Thanks
+Vinod
