It's time to get the Apache HAWQ Incubator next release moving
along. The following release plan is now open for discussion.
Scope: Initially, I had considered having a binary artifact
published with this release. However, I believe we would be
better served by producing a source release. I will also be
focusing on enhancing the documentation for the release process
and to identify infrastructure related activities to streamline
the release process in the future. I expect this to be a rather
short release cycle.
Here is the general plan, please provide feedback.
o Release scope
- This is a source only release.
o Release version
- Apache HAWQ 2.0.1.0-incubator
o Content
o Bugixes
o Introduction of the PXF ORC support
o Release timeline
12/21/2016
- Publish Apache Jira project dashboards
o Apache HAWQ 2.0.1.0 Release
o Apache HAWQ Incubator Metrics (not necessarily related to
release but helpful to see project activity)
o Un-resolved issues marked with a Fix Version of
"2.0.1.0-incubating" will have their Fix Version updated
to 2.0.2.0-incubating (next release version). The next
release version may change, I am recommending we use this
for now and adjust in the future as needed.
12/22/2016 - Code Freeze Activities
- Perform code based release activities
- Create the source release artifacts
12/23/2016 - Send release to dev team for voting with a 72
hours window
TBD - Send to IPMC for voting
Please provide feedback so we can get the release rolling,
