Dear Community, We are working on the Impala 5.0 release. The release branch is already available on GitHub.
There are still many unresolved issues that are scoped for Impala 5, mostly documentation changes and some bug fixes discovered while testing the release branch. https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20IMPALA%20AND%20status%20in%20(Open%2C%20%22In%20Progress%22%2C%20Reopened)%20AND%20(fixVersion%20%3D%20%22Impala%205.0.0%22%20OR%20%22Target%20Version%22%20%3D%20%22Impala%205.0.0%22) I would like to ask your help with fixing, reviewing and resolving them. Updating the documentation is especially important so that all the new features are easy to discover and use. After these issues get merged, I will rebase branch-5.0.0 on master and propose a release candidate. You can track the progress of the issues scoped for this release at https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/IMPALA/versions/12355756 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/IMPALA/versions/12355756> Thanks for your help, Noemi
