The most impactful change that I can see is the people that are involved with development who are willing to -1 a release. Those of us with votes are TLP have a big incentive for 4.0 to be stable - we want people to upgrade. I assume folks at Netflix, Apple are also very incentivized to see a

What I’m saying is that for new contributors, not branching has a cost and I think there are other ways to organize efforts. One of the suggestions was for each organization to test their own use cases in the stabilization process. I don’t think that’s been done very effectively previously.

We have done all this for previous releases and we know it has not worked well. So how giving it one more try is going to help here. Can someone outline what will change for 4.0 which will make it more successful? Not branching is one idea but we should discuss what will change now than iterating

What did we land on? Sounds like we're pretty split without consensus on "change the old branching strategy and reject new things on trunk during stabilization" vs. "keep doing things the way we did but message strongly that we won't be reviewing new things until 4.0 is stable". On Sat, Jul 7,

[VOTE FAILED - VETO] Release Apache Cassandra 2.2.13

2018-07-09 Thread Michael Shuler
This sha fails to build JDK7. If built on JDK8, which is what I did erroneously, the release fails with JDK7 runtime in AntiCompactionTest. In going through a round of test builds, it appears we have a problem with the CASSANDRA-14423 commit calling a JDK8-only String.join(). I'm vetoing this

I don't see how changing the process and banning feature commits is going to be any help to the project. There may be a couple committers who are interested in committing new features. I'm a -1 on changing the branching strategy in a way that prevents people from working and collaborating on an

Not everyone wants to work and collaborate the way you do. It seems absurd to me to force everyone to hold off on merging into a single branch just because a lot of us want to prioritize testing 4.0. I think most committers are going to want to contribute to the 4.0 testing process more than

If some committers want to bring in features without a path forward for releasing(as tests are broken), is that an acceptable state for you? How do we get out of this state. Like I said in my original email, this is a "proposal" and I am trying to see how we can improve things here. So if you are

My proposal is that we implement everything you're suggesting, except we branch off as we have in the past rather than locking down trunk. I'd encourage everyone to work to improve 4.0 in some way or another, whether it be fixing bugs, testing in a staging environment (feedback), writing tooling

I wholeheartedly agree with efforts to make releases more stable and the more contributors that add tests or test within the context of their own use cases, the better. +1 non-binding to the idea of better, more complete testing for releases. When it comes to how to do this, I think that’s
