I just cut off branch-2.8.1 from branch-2.8 for 2.8.1 release. So from now, all patch target for 2.8.1 need to be checked into branch-2.8.1 in addition to branch-2.8.

Now, we should work towards 2.8.1 release which aim for production deployment. The focus obviously is to fix blocker/critical issues [2], bug-fixes and *no* features / improvements. I plan to cut an RC in a month - target for releasing at mid of May, to give enough time for outstanding blocker / critical issues. Will start moving out any tickets that are not blockers and/or won't fit the timeline - there are 2 blockers and 9 critical tickets outstanding as of now. For progress of releasing effort, please refer our release wiki [3]. Please share thoughts if you have any. Thanks!
