Hi Arun/Subru, Thanks for updating on 2.9.0 release progress. A quick question here: are we planning to release from branch-2.9 directly? I doubt this as it seems against our current branch release practice ( https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToRelease#Branching). To get rid of any confusion, I would suggest to cut-off branch-2.9.0 for 2.9.0 release work. In the mean time, branch-2.9 should be reserved for next 2.9 point release (2.9.1) and branch-2 should be reserved for next minor release (2.10.0 or whatever name it is). Thoughts?
bq. @Junping, lets move the jdiff conversation to separate thread. Sure. I will reply jdiff in separated thread.
