Agreed. How about we roll an RC end of this week? As a Java 7+ release with features, patches that already got in?
Here's a filter tracking blocker tickets - https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?filter=12330598. Nine open now. +Arun Arun, I'd like to help get 2.7 out without further delay. Do you mind me taking over release duties?

It has been almost 3 months since Hadoop 2.6 was released, and there have already been 634 JIRAs committed to 2.7. That's a lot of changes waiting for an official release. https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20in%20%28hadoop%2Chdfs%2Cyarn%2Cmapreduce%29%20AND%20fixversion%3D2.7.0%20AND%20resolution%3DFixed Jason From: Sangjin Lee <sj...@apache.org> To: "common-dev@hadoop.apache.org" <common-dev@hadoop.apache.org> Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 2015 1:30 PM Subject: 2.7 status Folks, What is the current status of the 2.7 release? I know initially it started out as a "java-7" only release, but looking at the JIRAs that is very much not the case. Do we have a certain timeframe for 2.7 or is it time to discuss it? Thanks, Sangjin
