Hi team,
The next 0.8-incubating release candidate is scheduled for tomorrow, however I'm
afraid I'm not ready (hardly started to be honest) with JIRA-437.
And as IMO that issue really needs to be addressed properly before we can tag
and create the next release candidate, I've now upgraded that issue to priority
BLOCKER.
As I expect JIRA-437 will take me at least several hours to complete, requiring
many recent new dependencies to be 'cleared' as well as dealing with the shindig
situation (missing, incomplete NOTICE and LICENSE files), see SHINDIG-1689, I
won't be able to complete this before the planned 0.8-incubating release tag...
So, I think we have three options:
a) delay the 0.8-incubator release tag a few more days
b) someone else chimes in to (help with) complete JIRA-437
c) branch the trunk for a later (this week) 0.8-incubating release tag so work
on 0.9-incubating can continue right away in trunk, merging fixes from the
branch when they arrive
I expect I can get JIRA-437 finished by myself, at least if it doesn't turn up
something new/unexpected needing further investigation/actions, before end of
this week, hopefully already by Wednesday evening.
WDYT?
Regards, Ate
