Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-14697:
--------------------------------------
Josh and I had a chat about this earlier, and I just wanted to summarise
briefly what I said for the community's benefit.
I can see why the number of follow-ups linked here might be perceived as
worrisome, and could give the impression of a patch landing incomplete. But if
you dig into the detail, you'll see that almost all of the follow-up work
attached to this ticket was non-essential, just preferable. To illustrate,
I've categorised the tickets:
* 4 Non-TR related bugs, discovered in TR review and relevant to follow-up
* 7 cleanup tickets to improve code structure, 3 of which trivial, 2 only
tangentially related to TR (further improving some wider code cleanups that
landed alongside it), all of which capitalising on the review effort to clean
up existing code while fresh
* 3 bugs with TR, mostly non-critical
* 7 TR related 'nice to haves' - removing minor caveats (2 of these are easily
categorised either as bugs or caveats to document)
* 1 bug affecting regular operation
* 1 discussion ticket for nuance of certain characteristics of TR
It has since come to light that there were differing interpretations of the
agreed-upon freeze, some of which might have preferred to defer some of the
above work until another major release, but I hope this sheds enough light to
demonstrate the work (as it landed) was fairly complete.
My own view is that this is the best vetted ticket of this scope to ever land
in the codebase, and the first one I've been personally willing to endorse
committing.
I think what this demonstrates most is that we need better communication and
more explicit planning in the community for releases - both for 4.0 and after.
Hopefully we can begin to tackle that in the coming weeks.
