for the Python API this is fine, for DML not as we should stick as close as possible to R syntax. Once we had a pydml syntax too, but this created lots of inconsistencies and could not use Python as a host language. So, I think restricting such changes to the Python API is a good path forward. Other opinions?

Subject: [DISCUSS] Apache SystemDS 2.0 Release

Hi all,

I'd like to propose Aug 31 as a target date for the SystemDS 2.0 release
(feature freeze August 21). This should gives us enough time to figure
out the list of things that still should go into this release as it's an
opportunity of a major for changes of external behavior. However, as
it's the first SystemDS Apache release, I think we should still stick to
Spark 2.x and Java 8 and consider upgrades of Spark and the JDK for
subsequent releases. So, what do you think and any major features you'd
like to see complete for 2.0?

Regards,
Matthias
