Hello Kudu devs!

The Apache Kudu team is happy to announce the first release candidate for Apache
Kudu 1.13.0.

Apache Kudu 1.13.0 is a minor release that offers many improvements and fixes
since Apache Kudu 1.12.0.

This is a source-only release. The artifacts have been staged here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/kudu/1.13.0-RC1/

Java convenience binaries in the form of a Maven repository are staged here:
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachekudu-1083

Linux (built on CentOS 6) and macOS (built on Catalina) test-only Kudu binary
JAR artifacts are staged here:
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachekudu-1084

It is tagged in Git as 1.13.0-RC1 and signed with my key (found in the KEYS file
below). Its commit hash is f0526578aef16a91f6c74de80419738a9c45acf9, you can
check it out from ASF Gitbox or the official GitHub mirror:

https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=kudu.git;a=tag;h=refs/tags/1.13.0-RC1
https://github.com/apache/kudu/releases/tag/1.13.0-RC1

The KEYS file to verify the artifact and tag signatures can be found here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/kudu/KEYS

The release notes can be found here:
https://github.com/apache/kudu/blob/1.13.0-RC1/docs/release_notes.adoc

I'd suggest going through the release notes, building Kudu, and running the unit
tests. Testing out the Maven repo would also be appreciated. Also, it's worth
running Kudu Java tests against kudu-binary JAR artifact as described in the
commit message here:

https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=kudu.git;a=commit;h=8a6faaa93f3e206ac75e8087731daccaf7ab646a

The vote will run until a majority[1] is achieved, but at least until Thursday
Sep 10th 9:00:00 CEST 2020, which is a bit over the suggested 72 hours due to
the weekend, to give everyone a chance to review this release candidate and
vote.

Thank You,
Attila
