Hi, Yes, we're actually a bit late. There is one last critical thing that I would like to fix before cutting the branch: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7420 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-7420>. And a scheduling bug that Till already fixed and is about to be merged.
Once this is in I'll cut the branch and announce it. Best, Aljoscha > On 2.
