Thanks Josh for asking.

You have one you are trying to land and I just asked you take a look at
another that I think lands in your corner.

In general, test fixing has been taking forever...  (Almost 200 issues
since beta-1). The flakey list was long and if you dug, there was a dirty
root cause that needed addressing. We are almost there now thanks to the
great work of a bunch of you all [1] (Duo has done a mountain of work in
here). The nightlies are starting to pass with hbase2 on hadoop2 [2] and we
are now into test failures running hbase2 over hadoop3 (Drob has some fun
fixes coming here). Correct me if I have it wrong but I'd think it'd be
hard to release an hbase2 if unit tests don't pass (most of the time).

Thereafter, its test and doc, mostly[3]. Help is needed here, in particular
enabling new stuff and trying it. Little has been done on scale and perf
that I know of. I was going to take a look at a rolling upgrade to see what
is involved and a last run through the compatibility report. Making this
work might have to be a post-2.0.0 thing; hbase-2.0.0 has been going on too
long.

Was hoping to beta-2 this weekend or start of next week.

Thanks,
