We back port bug fixes into the 0.9 branch as they come in, so if there is a particular fix you want to get you can always build from the head of branch-0.9 and expect only stability improvements compared with Spark 0.9.0.
The timing of the maintenance releases depends a bit on what bug fixes come in and their importance. I'm thinking we should propose a release pretty soon (order weeks) since there are some valuable bug fixes that came in this week. - Patrick On Fri, Feb 21, 2014 at 2:22 PM, Gary Malouf <malouf.g...@gmail.com> wrote: > My team has avoided upgrading to 0.9 to this point because of the Mesos bug > that has since been fixed in master.
