This is coming from the "JMX needs to die in a fire" guy, but I think Nodetool needs to stay as-is in 4.x. This is a massive breaking change for operators which fits into the major version issue requirements. Also, this should probably be a CEP. Patrick On Thu, Jul 15, 2021 at 12:07 PM Stefan

I'm going to put up a red flag of making config file changes of this scale on a dot release. This should really be a 5.0 consideration. With that, I would propose a #5. 5.0 nodes will only read the new config files and reject old config files. If any of you went through the config file changes

I’m going to be clearer in my statement. This has to be in 5.0, even if it’s alpha and ships after December, or this is going to be disaster that will take us much longer to unravel. On Mon, Oct 23, 2023 at 7:49 AM Jeremiah Jordan wrote: > +1 from me assuming we have tickets and two committer

I'm really surprised to see this email. The last I heard everything was on track for getting into 5.0 and TBH and Accord is what a majority of users are expecting in 5.0. And how could this be a .1 release? What is it going to take to get it into 5.0? What is off track and how did we get here?
