Hi Kudu dev community, It's been 2 months since release 1.5.0 and we've got a bunch of valuable improvements and bug fixes waiting in the wings. Based on our usual 2-month cadence, now looks like a good time to start thinking about a Kudu 1.6.0 release.
I'll volunteer to RM this one, unless someone else has a burning desire to do it. I'll also propose to cut the branch for 1.6.x early in the week *after* the Thanksgiving holiday in the US, and to start a vote on RC1 a couple of days after that. Devs: That means release notes for notable changes in 1.6 should be up for review and ready to go by Monday, November 27 (the Monday after Thanksgiving) to ensure their inclusion. Please let me know your thoughts on the above plan. Thanks! Mike
