Dear devs,
This is the fourth meeting for Flink 1.20 release cycle. I'd like to share the information synced in the meeting. - Feature Freeze It is worth noting that there are only 4 weeks left until the feature freeze time(June 15, 2024), and developers need to pay attention to the feature freeze time. - Features: So far we've had 10 flips/features, there are two FLIPs that may not be completed in 1.20, and the status of the other eight FLIPs is good. It is encouraged to continuously updating the 1.20 wiki page[1] for contributors. - Blockers: - [Closed] FLINK-35041 IncrementalRemoteKeyedStateHandleTest.testSharedStateReRegistration failed - [Doing] FLINK-35040 The performance of serializerHeavyString regresses since April 3 - we have started a discussion[2] about this to dev mail list to collect some valuable suggestion. We will accept this regression if we don't have any suggestion. - [In Verification] FLINK-35215 The performance of serializerKryo and serializerKryoWithoutRegistration are regressed - Rui provided an alternative change without performance regression, we will follow the benchmark result in the following days, and close this JIRA after the performance is recovered. - Sync meeting[3]: The next meeting is 06/04/2024 10am (UTC+2) and 4pm (UTC+8), please feel free to join us. After this, the release sync will be adjusted to weekly as we approaching the feature freeze date. Lastly, we encourage attendees to fill out the topics to be discussed at the bottom of 1.20 wiki page[1] a day in advance, to make it easier for everyone to understand the background of the topics, thanks!
