2.0.0 is already binary incompatible with 1.6.0 (even before rc3), so what's the point? Maybe this is a benefit not to change ABI between release candidates, but I don't really see a problem releasing 2.0.0. as-is -- Best regards, Kirill Reshke --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@cloudberry.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@cloudberry.apache.org
