So while its definitely better, there are still a large number of failing
builds. We've been hit by at least: IMPALA-6642
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6642>, IMPALA-6956
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6956>, IMPALA-7101
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7101> and IMPALA-3040
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-3040>
all within the last day, along with some mysterious crashes that I haven't
filed anything for with Apache yet as there's very little info about what's
actually going on. There are still multiple builds that haven't been green
in over a month.
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6642>

Of course, if we hold commits for too long, there's a danger that when we
open things back up a bunch of changes will all land at the same time and
destabilize the builds again, putting back in the same situation. So, I
would say at a minimum that any changes that are relatively minor and low
risk can go in now.

My preference would be to hold off on major changes until we have more
stability.
