Hi, The Apache Kudu team is happy to announce the first release candidate for Apache Kudu 1.1.0.
Apache Kudu 1.1 is a minor release which adds various new features, improvements, bug fixes, and optimizations on top of Kudu 1.0. Please see the release notes for details. The is a source-only release. The artifacts were staged here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/kudu/1.1.0-RC1/ Java convenience binaries in the form of a Maven repository are staged here: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachekudu-1005/ It was built from this tag: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=kudu.git;a=commit;h=3f64b68724ded320a31b69467c5a5f7744b07a50 The release notes can be found here (some links from this document will only work when this version is released): https://github.com/apache/kudu/blob/branch-1.1.x/docs/release_notes.adoc KEYS file: http://www.apache.org/dist/kudu/KEYS I'd suggest going through the README, building Kudu, and running the unit tests. Testing out the Maven repo would also be appreciated. While voting, please note that there are some known test failures on RHEL 6: - sasl_rpc-test fails in ASAN builds due to a memory leak in libkrb5.so - external_mini_cluster-test fails in RELEASE builds due to a bug in MIT Kerberos 1.10 (the workaround is in progress) These are test-only issues related to in-progress security work which is not yet supported in Kudu 1.1. Please disregard such failures when voting. Please try the release and vote; the vote will end in 72 hours (on 11/17/2016 at 4:30pm PST). Thanks, Todd
