Hi all, to help us get ready, I've started a draft blog post for the 0.16 release: https://github.com/apache/arrow-site/pull/41 We'll need to fill in the sections. Feel free to push edits to my branch, or you can also email me (personally is fine) and I can paste them in. Neal On Thu, Jan 9, 20

Will do -- there were many C++ and Python-related issues that I think were put in 1.0.0 / 0.16.0 overly optimistically and so I removed the Fix Version entirely (some of these had been pushed off 3-4 major releases ago). I may have removed some Fix Versions from other components that should have be

It would be helpful that when something is assigned to a release and you want to push it out, you push it to the next release as opposed to removing a fix version entirely. Thanks! On Tue, Jan 7, 2020 at 10:26 AM Wes McKinney wrote: > I just renamed the 1.0.0 release version in JIRA to 0.16.0 an

I just finished an initial curation of the JIRA backlog. There are now 137 issues which is probably more than will be resolved before releasing. I noticed some concerning bugs that may need attention, but if there are any new feature or nice-to-have issues that you are familiar with please remove t

That sounds fine to me. I don't see many blocking issues for a major release, and the nightly reports are fairly clean, so I think we should try to be ready to go at the beginning of that week of the 19th. On Tue, Jan 7, 2020 at 4:40 PM Neal Richardson wrote: > > If we expect that the release pro

If we expect that the release process may be less stable this time, should we bump up our target date for an RC, like to the 20th or 21st (two weeks from now)? That would give us more leeway to make sure we get a release out before the end of January. Neal On Tue, Jan 7, 2020 at 1:02 PM Krisztián

Sounds good to me. I'll help with the jira curation. Because of the recent CI migrations we'll need to be more thorough during the verification, and I also expect minor issues during the release process. So I volunteer to be the RM if no one else wants to jump in. Thanks, Krisztian On Tue, Jan 7

I just renamed the 1.0.0 release version in JIRA to 0.16.0 and will work on removing issues that are not necessary to be able to release (others, please help). If we make miraculous progress with the 1.0.0 columnar format blockers (per discussion below), we can change this back, but I think either
