The summer is over and it's a great time for a new release of Rya. . I plan to do a release in a couple of weeks.
I am working through "How To Release Rya" on our wiki: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/RYA/How+To+Release+Rya This is step one, Communicate. :-) Let me know if you have pull requests that should be included. I plan to merge a couple that update dependencies and then as many more as I can. I am now working on testing Pull Request #309 - update Java 8 and Zookeeper installation david.
