Hi folks, It's been a month since 3.0.0-alpha1, and we've been incorporating fixes based on downstream feedback. Thus, it's getting to be time for 3.0.0-alpha2. I'm using this JIRA query to track open issues:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20in%20(HADOOP%2C%20HDFS%2C%20MAPREDUCE%2C%20YARN)%20AND%20%22Target%20Version%2Fs%22%20in%20(3.0.0-alpha2%2C%203.0.0-beta1%2C%202.8.0)%20AND%20statusCategory%20not%20in%20(Complete)%20ORDER%20BY%20priority If alpha2 goes well, we can declare feature freeze, cut branch-3, and move onto beta1. My plan for the 3.0.0 release timeline looks like this: * alpha2 in early November * beta1 in early Jan * GA in early March I'd appreciate everyone's help in resolving blocker and critical issues on the above JIRA search. Thanks, Andrew
