The Cassandra team is pleased to announce the sixth release candidate for the future Apache Cassandra version 2.1.0.
Please note that this is not yet the final 2.1.0 release and as such, it should not be considered for production use. We'd appreciate testing and let us know if you encounter any problem[3,4]. Please make sure to have a look at the change log[1] and release notes[2]. Apache Cassandra 2.1.0-rc6[5] is available as usual from the cassandra website (http://cassandra.apache.org/download/) and a debian package is available using the 21x branch (see http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/DebianPackaging). Enjoy!
