If we're going to do a bug fix release, I'd like to see some of the low hanging fix PRs get finished and merged prior to the release. We've been lax about getting them cleaned up, so I'd like to use a release as an opportunity to whittle the PRs down and put out a really solid release.
https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/1568 should be in before release. It addresses an issue with our validation of dependencies_with_url.csv and it's validation. Should https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/1282 be in? Seems like that should have been merged awhile ago. There's also a couple UI performance / bug fixes PRs (e.g. https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/1533 and https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/1527) that have been sitting awhile.
