+1 for leesf, driving the release.. >From http://www.apache.org/dev/release-publishing.html#release_manager, it does explicitly confirm that any committer can be RM. I am happy to volunteer my services to assist leesf in the process.
@all : Please speak up if you have concerns with the release/timelines. Side note: There are OPEN jiras here https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20HUDI%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%200.5.1 , targeted against the release. So if you are interested, please grab them so we can expedite our progress.
