Hello everyone, I've mentioned in other forums that I'd volunteer as release manager for Apache Hadoop 3.5.0, with a goal of full support for Java 17. I'd like to get more specific about release planning and a potential target date.
It can be easy to get lost in the nested historical JIRAs for Java 17 support [1]. I'd like to start by summarizing my understanding of work done and work remaining for Java 17 as well as other significant features the community wants to ship in 3.5.0: - We've completed the Jersey upgrade [2]. - We've made significant progress on the JUnit 5 upgrade [3], and we have a list of several PRs remaining to be reviewed and committed [4]. - There is some sun.misc usage that needs alternate implementations [5] [6]. There are PRs, but they haven't had any recent activity. - Once these issues are settled, we need to (re-)introduce a Java 17 build profile [7]. - I and a few others are also interested in trying to target the GCS FileSystem implementation for 3.5.0 [8]. Does this look accurate? Did I miss anything important for 3.5.0, either for Java 17 or other features?
