Sounds great. In order to support HA in a dot release we'll need to merge in the branch for HDFS-1623, but that shouldn't hold up branching for 23. Sanjay mentioned this as the summit but I wanted to double check with you, you support a dot release of 23 with HA? The hope is that we support one of the multiple options HDFS-1623 allows for, and that we introduce an incompatible change only when absolutely necessary. If that doesn't work for you we could do a 0.24 release for HA but the hope is that we'll get more people contributing to this release. Thanks, Eli
