Thanks Andrew for the great work! It's really exciting to finally see a Hadoop 3 RC.
I noticed CHANGES and RELEASENOTES markdown files which were not in previous RCs like 2.7.3. What are good tools to verify them? I tried reading them on IntelliJ but format looks odd. I'm still testing the RC: - Downloaded and verified checksum - Built from source - Will start small cluster and test simple programs, focusing on EC functionalities -- Zhe On Tue, Aug 30, 2016 at 8:51 AM Andrew Wang <andrew.w...@cloudera.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > Thanks to the combined work of many, many contributors, here's an RC0 for > 3.0.0-alpha1: > > http://home.apache.org/~wang/3.0.0-alpha1-RC0/ > > alpha1 is the first in a series of planned alpha releases leading up to GA. > The objective is to get an artifact out to downstreams for testing and to > iterate quickly based on their feedback.
