Just a quick update on the release status here:

- Just pushed another rev of release notes:
http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/3979

Please take a look and see if I described features correctly or if I missed
anything.

- I've been stress testing the replay cache code over the weekend and I am
feeling pretty good about it. I random-inserted about 57B rows from ~240
clients into a ~70 node cluster and memory usage has stayed constant. I've
also looped the integration/stress tests a few thousand times and seems
reliable. So, I'm inclined to actually turn this on by default in 0.10.0.
If we start seeing any issues, they'll probably be rare ones and we can
have people disable it via the gflag.

- Mike has put a valiant effort to finish up the delta GC stuff, but he's
still looking into one particularly tricky corner of the code. Seems like
we should probably defer this to the next release.

- There are a few other less-risky straggling patches which we can try to
get in tomorrow during the day. I'll aim to cut a release candidate in the
late afternoon or evening.

-Todd
