Hi,
I would like to propose to branch for Pig 0.6.0 release with the intent to have a release before the end of the year. We have done a lot of work since branching for Pig 0.5.0 that we would like to share with users. This includes changing how bags are spilled onto disk (PIG-975, PIG-1037), skewed and fragment-replicated outer join plus many other performance improvements and bug fixes. Please vote by Thursday. Thanks, Olga
