Yuki Morishita commented on CASSANDRA-16171:
--------------------------------------------
Thanks for the comment.
I'd like this ticket to just remove windows scripts (*.bat / *.ps1) from the
release artifact, as those are broken and should be a blocker for 4.0 GA
release.
{quote}We should add a note in docs about the removal, explanation and the
workaround for current Windows users. NEWS file is not enough imo. Otherwise
.bat scripts will just be gone with no explanation for them
We should remove from docs all references to Windows (grep -ri window in doc
folder) imo
{quote}
Yes we should, and these two can be handled in CASSANDRA-16173
{quote}We should run tests and also check test artifacts generation are not
broken.
{quote}
Agree. I will submit CI to run tests.
I don't think we have automated test to check artifacts generation, right?
{quote}Should we create a ticket to simplify the code by removing Windows
support from the code/pytests? There seems to be a bit of that
{quote}
There are many places that can be removed from the code, so eventually we can
remove those in the future.
