Hi everyone, I would like to give you a brief update of the Flink 1.16 release sync meating of 2022-08-09.
* Currently, we have 40 features that have been completed for this release and 6 features are still expected to make it (PS: Most of them are already reviewed and are just waiting for the CI pass). * We plan to announce feature freeze on 9th of August 2022, end of business CEST. If you need an exception to this rule, please open a discussion on dev@ list and reach out to us. * Currently, we still have many new features that do not provide corresponding documentation. Please complete them as soon as possible, otherwise it will not be conducive to our cross-team testing. * After feature freeze, we will start the work of preparing release notes and testing. * Some of our new features' umbrella JIRAs are only partially included in 1.16. For the child JIRAs that are not included in this release, we will move them to a new umbrella, which is beneficial to view the status of the feature. * There are still some critical/blocker stability tickets[1] that need to be resolved.
