With so many branches, we sometimes miss putting critical bug fixes in unreleased branches if the branch is cut too early.
My 2 cents... Thanks, -Eric Payne On Monday, May 7, 2018, 12:09:00 AM CDT, Yongjun Zhang <yjzhan...@apache.org> wrote: Hi All, > We have released Apache Hadoop 3.0.2 in April of this year [1]. Since then, there are quite some commits done to branch-3.0. To further improve the quality of release, we plan to do 3.0.3 release now. The focus of 3.0.3 will be fixing blockers (3), critical bugs (17) and bug fixes (~130), see [2]. Usually no new feature should be included for maintenance releases, I noticed we have https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13055 in the branch classified as new feature. I will talk with the developers to see if we should include it in 3.0.3. I also noticed that there are more commits in the branch than can be found by query [2], also some commits committed to 3.0.3 do not have their jira target release field filled in accordingly. I will go through them to update the jira. > We plan to cut branch-3.0.3 by the coming Wednesday (May 9th) and vote for RC on May 30th, targeting for Jun 8th release. > Your insights are welcome. > [1] https://www.mail-archive.com/general@hadoop.apache.org/msg07790.html > [2] https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?filter=12343874 See Note below Note: seems I need some admin change so that I can make the filter in [2] public, I'm working on that. For now, you can use jquery (project = hadoop OR project = "Hadoop HDFS" OR project = "Hadoop YARN" OR project = "Hadoop Map/Reduce") AND fixVersion in (3.0.3) ORDER BY priority DESC Thanks and best regards, --Yongjun --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-dev-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-dev-h...@hadoop.apache.org
