Hi Brandon, In all respect, we need to discuss and vote before we create a new branch. So it is best if we do that instead of creating branches. Freeze is a symptom not a cause so if we dont like the symptom, we should see how to fix the cause. Are we fine having a database release which will be released with 10s of correctness bugs and with an implicit assumption that no one will use it in prod till 10th minor.
Everyone wants to innovate but security, durability and availability comes first. People who are working on stabilizing 4.0 are doing it as there is no other choice. So I request you to kindly cooperate on working with them in making 4.0 a stable release. https://tinyurl.com/30seriousissues Thanks, Sankalp On Thu, Sep 24, 2020 at 9:30 AM Brandon Williams <dri...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Thu, Sep 24, 2020 at 11:22 AM Benedict Elliott Smith > <bened...@apache.org> wrote: > > Given this is the basis of argument, I would also propose a less > contentious vote, should one be undertaken: to create a cassandra-5.0 > branch that is open only to contributions from those unaffiliated by > employment with any existing committers. > > Are you serious?
