I don’t think we have added any new features that were not relevant to the external plugin interface in master as yet.
+1 to allow the hdfs-based shuffle (TEZ-2442) and fair custom data routing ( TEZ-3209 ) to land on master without impacting stability of 0.8.x. Also, we should consider replacing tez-ui with tez-ui2 if we are moving to master as 0.9.x This does mean maintaining 3 branches though ( master, 0.8.x and 0.7.x ). thanks — Hitesh On Apr 18, 2016, at 4:37 PM, Siddharth Seth <[email protected]> wrote: > There's several new features being added - including support for multiple > partition fetch in UnorderedOutput, FileSystem based fetcher, Tez-UI2 etc. > > I'd propose moving master to a new major version (0.9) for the new feature > work being done.
