@GauthamBanasandra, happy to see you are back. > Built on Windows 11 with ..., and JDK 8 ... can not be true - `trunk` requires JDK 17+ now Jenkins is not stable, so don't be surprised if it fails. The community recently spent effort moving the CI to GitHub Actions, and the Linux part should be mostly working. Since you might be the only committer who is proficient in both Hadoop native code and Windows, would you be interested in adding Windows coverage to the GitHub Actions CI? As for `winutils` and `libhadoop`: they date back to an era when Hadoop ran on a very old JDK that lacked many OS APIs Hadoop needs. Modern JDKs have changed the picture — they now provide much of that functionality, so migrating the native code to JDK-provided APIs would significantly reduce its maintenance burden. I'm currently exploring what that looks like for the Linux/Unix side. For the Windows portion, though — would you be interested in investigating the migration there? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
