+1 Thank Zoltan! I think it's also a good chance to release the binaries since we already support building RPM/DEB packages. We can mark them as experimental and hopefully get some feedback from the community.
Xiang Yang contributed some patches to improve the package support. It'd be nice to get them merged in this release as well: https://gerrit.cloudera.org/c/20921 https://gerrit.cloudera.org/c/20928 https://gerrit.cloudera.org/c/20929 https://gerrit.cloudera.org/c/20263 Quanlong On Thu, Apr 4, 2024 at 6:10 AM Laszlo Gaal <lasz...@apache.org> wrote: > +1 > > thank you very much for volunteering to be the release manager, much > appreciated. > > - LaszloG > > On Wed, Apr 3, 2024 at 8:42 PM Riza Suminto <riza.sumi...@cloudera.com> > wrote: > > > +1 > > > > On Wed, Apr 3, 2024 at 12:55 AM Gabor Kaszab <gaborkas...@apache.org> > > wrote: > > > > > The last release has been a while..
