Hi Jinghcuan
As soon as we get a fix merged for DRILL-8200 [1], a high severity
security bug, how about you start cherry picking bug fixes into a 1.20.1
branch? I'm working on DRILL-8200 but we need an update of the Hadoop
"winutils" and the publisher we source those from hasn't yet uploaded
one for Hadoop 3.2.3 [2]. If they don't I'm sure we can build our own.
I'll also revisit the -hadoop2 build question.

Thanks

Hi James,
It's my great honor that I can help you with bug fix release.
For the hadoop2 support solution, maybe we could start a vote in our
community.
Best,
Jingchuan

Hi Jingchuan Hu
The next major release is a long way off but, if nobody objects to
the
idea, would you like to work with me to produce bug fix releases for
1.20? This is new territory for our project but I think we could
start
in one of our forks by cherry picking only the bug fix commits from
the
master branch to the 1.20.0 branch (the trailing .0 in that branch
name
is perhaps a little unfortunate) that was created by the last major
release. We can then open a PR to the 1.20.0 branch in the main repo
and do a review. Once that's approved and merged we can attach a new
tag of drill-1.20.1 and then do the Maven release plugin
incantations to
produce and upload the new build artifacts. As we go we can document
and script the process in the way that the major release process has
been.
We'll naturally be led to revisit the -hadoop2 build in the process,
which is a good thing because it is unsatisfactory in its current
form
which creates a whole new version of Drill (1.20.0-hadoop2),
including
source control features like the branch and tag, and is not sensible
since this is only a build of 1.20.x under a different profile, not
some
independent version of Drill. Unfortunately the Maven release
plugins
we use didn't seem to support this scenario, at least when I looked
while releasing 1.20, so one possibility here is that the project
decides to provide Hadoop 2 support in source form only: users who
want
to run with Hadoop 2 must build themselves. We would not be the only
Apache project to do this see e.g. HBase, Phoenix. Or, half way, we
provide a deployable tarball for -hadoop2 but that's it, we don't
populate our Maven repo with the corresponding artifacts.
