Hi, I think we've talked about more frequent releases before. Releasing new versions every few months means people don't have to wait long for fixes to get out, and smaller releases are probably also easier for users to get to grips with (the fix list for 2.0.0 is enormous).
With that in mind, I think we should start looking at the next 2.x release (2.0.1 or 2.1.0?), since it's been a couple of months since 2.0.0 released. The fix list would be https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20STORM%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%202.0.1 . Govind and Ethan have offered to run the next release, and help validate our release process guidelines. Would one of you have time to work on a release in the near future? It would be good to take a look at currently open PRs and decide which we feel need to get merged before the next release. I would like to see at least https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/2990 merged https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/2878 seems like it's close to be mergeable too?
