Hi folks, Given the release of 2.10.0, and the fact that it's intended to be a bridge release to Hadoop 3.x [1], I'm proposing we make 2.10.x the last minor release line in branch-2. Currently, the main issue is that there's many fixes going into branch-2 (the theoretical 2.11.0) that's not going into branch-2.10 (which will become 2.10.1), so the fixes in branch-2 will likely never see the light of day unless they are backported to branch-2.10.
To do this, I propose we: - Delete branch-2.10 - Rename branch-2 to branch-2.10 - Set version in the new branch-2.10 to 2.10.1-SNAPSHOT This way we get all the current branch-2 fixes into the 2.10.x release line. Then the commit chain will look like: trunk -> branch-3.2 -> branch-3.1 -> branch-2.10 -> branch-2.9 -> branch-2.8 Thoughts?
