Cassandra 0.8.1 has been out for a few weeks now and we have had a number of fixes since then. It feels like a good time to relase 0.8.2. But there is also the fact that 0.8.1 suffers from the same regression than 0.7.7, that is: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2928
For both those reasons, I propose the following artifacts for release as 0.8.2. SVN: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/cassandra/branches/cassandra-0.8@r1149430 Artifacts: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecassandra-026/org/apache/cassandra/apache-cassandra/0.8.2/ Staging repository: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecassandra-026/ The artifacts as well as a debian package are also available here: http://people.apache.org/~slebresne/ The vote will be open for 72 hours (longer if needed).
