Hi, I wanted to kick off a specific discussion on a 0.8.1.2 release. Here are the JIRAs I would like to propose to back port a patch (if not already done so) and apply them to the 0.8.1 branch for a 0.8.1.2 release
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1502 (source jar is empty) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1419 (cross build for scala 2.11) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1382 (Update zkVersion on partition state update failures) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1490 (remove gradlew initial setup output from source distribution) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1645 (some more jars in our src release) If the community and committers can comment on the patches proposed that would be great. If I missed any bring them up or if you think any I have proposed shouldn't be int he release bring that up too please. Once we have consensus on this thread my thought was that I would apply and commit the agreed to tickets to the 0.8.1 branch. If any tickets don't apply of course a back port patch has to happen through our standard process (not worried about that we have some engineering cycles to contribute to making that happen). Once that is all done, I will build 0.8.1.2 release artifacts and call a VOTE for RC1. /******************************************* Joe Stein Founder, Principal Consultant Big Data Open Source Security LLC http://www.stealth.ly Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> ********************************************/
