Hi All,
To continue a faster cadence of releases to accommodate more features, we could plan a Hadoop 3.2 release around August end. To start the process sooner, and to establish a timeline, I propose to target Hadoop 3.2.0 release by August end 2018. (About 1.5 months from now). I would also would like to take this opportunity to come up with a detailed plan. - Feature freeze date : all features should be merged by August 10, 2018. - Code freeze date : blockers/critical only, no improvements and non blocker/critical bug-fixes August 24, 2018. - Release date: August 31, 2018 I have tried to come up with a list of features on my radar which could be candidates for a 3.2 release: - YARN-3409, Node Attributes support. (Owner: Naganarasimha/Sunil) - YARN-8135, Hadoop Submarine project for DeepLearning workloads in YARN (Owner: Wangda Tan) - YARN Native Service / Docker feature hardening and stabilization works in YARN There are several other HDFS features want to be released with 3.2 as well, I am quoting few here: - HDFS-10285 Storage Policy Satisfier (Owner: Uma/Rakesh) - Improvements to HDFS-12615 Router-based HDFS federation Please let me know if I missed any features targeted to 3.2 per this timeline. I would like to volunteer myself as release manager of 3.2.0 release. Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks, Sunil Govindan
