Arun, How much time do you think it would take to have a version of 0.20 with the security features in it ready ? In a different thread, Owen has started discussing plans around 0.22. Do you think this effort would affect 0.22 release ?
I think it should be fairly trivial to get this release out - most of the effort is just the mechanics of committing the patches to an Apache branch from the yahoo git repository, creating a release candidate and calling it a success! *smile*
I think doing this quickly is critical in ensuring that we do not lose focus on 0.22, but I believe this will definitely help the community.
I do agree that this would be very useful for folks who want security sooner. And the fact that Yahoo! have been running it at scale for a good while now is also assuring.
Just to clarify - this has security and a bunch of other enhancements (which are either in 0.21 or 0.22 or both).
