Greetings. Here’s your look at Cassandra 4.0 release status for the week -- this one with 300% more exclamation points! Seven days since last update.
Jira board with 4.0 scope: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355&quickFilter=1661 High level numbers by release phase: Beta: 0! (-2); This week the project bottomed out on known blocking flaws! The only thing ahead of an RC resolving the remaining flaky tests, and getting a clean CI run. RC: 20 (-18); 14 in-flight; in addition to plenty of good progress on tickets in scope, some of the open-ended quality tickets were discussed and moved to post-4.0. Top-level metrics: Total tickets in 4.0: 1609 (+1) Remaining tickets represent 1.2% of total scope Created vs. resolved trended solidly positive on this interval. Where you can help: * We’ve bottomed out on known flaws ahead of RC. There are flaky tests keeping us from clean CI. Any time spent Investigating and stabilizing tests is appreciated. *Needs Reviewer: 1 RC tickets up for review with no reviewer https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355&quickFilter=1661&quickFilter=1659 *No assignee: zero! https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355&quickFilter=1661&quickFilter=1658 *Tickets stalled for a week: 5 GA tickets stalled. The stall trend continues to diminish. More than half of the stalled tickets have moved since last week. https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=355&quickFilter=1661&quickFilter=1694 Please let us know on the thread if I have missed anything that needs attention. I encourage anyone to respond to these reports calling attention to any localized things that could use it. As always thanks to everyone for the continued hard work on the project.
