Re: the release after 0.5
I've moved the already-committed-as-0.9 issues to 0.6, and created a new 0.7 version for tickets that do not fit the goal of a quick release fully compatible with 0.5. -Jonathan On Fri, Jan 8, 2010 at 2:06 PM, Jonathan Ellis jbel...@gmail.com wrote: In the month since 0.5 was branched, we've already made some significant progress, particularly in performance. I can't find a way to easily link the full list in Jira, but these include 408+669 (mmapping sstables for reads instead of using buffered I/O): ~50% speed improvement 658 (better write concurrency): ~1000% improvement when cluster is in degraded state 675 (faster communication between nodes): ~100% improvement of reads and writes 678 (row level caching): up to 120% improvement of reads (workload dependent) We also have some other interesting tickets done: 336: add the ability to insert data to multiple rows at once -- like multiget, but for writes 535: expose StorageProxy to use as a fat client (with StorageService.initClient) 599: give some visibility of what Compaction is busy doing (can be a major source of why is it slow?) We have a lot of other issues tagged 0.9 (https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=truemode=hidesorter/order=DESCsorter/field=priorityresolution=-1pid=12310865fixfor=12314361), but the above issues and the others done so far are already useful enough to release, both because it helps our existing users of 0.5 [note that none of these introduce compatibility issues of any sort, which makes upgrading especially easy], and because improving performance by that much makes us look better, which helps grow the community. :) On the other hand, creating and stabilizing and testing a new release (that is not bugfix-only) is a non-negligible amount of overhead, and I would give extra weight to Eric Evans's opinion here as release manager. -Jonathan
[VOTE] Release 0.5.0 (final)
There have been a few changes[1] in the 0.5 branch since RC3. In a perfect world, we'd probably push those into another release candidate, but I feel pretty good about this one, and any remaining issues can always be added to 0.5.1. I propose the following tag and artifacts for 0.5.0: SVN Tag: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/cassandra/tags/cassandra-0.5.0 0.5.0 artifacts: http://people.apache.org/~eevans +1 from me.

Re: Chair
+1 for Jonathan, Thanks for your hard work, Jonathan. -Santal 2010/1/6 Eric Evans eev...@rackspace.com When we graduate, we need to have someone who will act as the Chair of the Project Management Committee, or Chair. The Chair reports to the ASF Board on behalf of the project, maintains information on the PMC disposition, provides write access to new committers, etc. So besides sounding kind of prestigious, the Chair is basically a glorified administrative assistant. :) http://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html#chair My understanding is that the Chair a) needs to be on the PMC[1], and b) must volunteer for the job. So, do we have any volunteers? Jonathan (hint, hint :)? [1] http://incubator.apache.org/projects/cassandra.html#Project+info -- Eric Evans eev...@rackspace.com

Re: [VOTE] Release 0.5.0 (final)
No, but we will definitely take a look at it for 0.5.1. 0.5.0 will not be perfect but it is a huge improvement over 0.4.2, which people are still using because that's the official stable release. We need to fix that. :) -Jonathan On Mon, Jan 18, 2010 at 6:39 PM, Ryan Daum r...@thimbleware.com wrote: Any chance of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-713 getting looked at and closed before a 0.5.0 final?
