Dear Ignite Community! I suggest starting Apache Ignite 2.13 release activities.
There is a plan to merge the new Calcite SQL engine. [1] I think that 2.13 is a good candidate for it. Moreover, we've accumulated a hundred resolved [2] issues with new features and bug fixes which are waiting for their release date. For example, BinaryArray introduced, Read Repair strategies implemented, CPP Thin: asynchronous network events handling, NUMA-aware allocator for data regions etc. I want to propose myself to be the release manager of the planning release. I propose the following timeline: Scope Freeze: February 21, 2022 Code Freeze: March 7, 2022 Voting Date: March 21, 2022 Release Date: March 28, 2022 WDYT?
