Re: [DISCUSS] EOL Hadoop branch-2.8

2020-02-24 Thread Wei-Chiu Chuang
Looking at the EOL policy wiki:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/HADOOP/EOL+%28End-of-life%29+Release+Branches

The Hadoop community can still elect to make security update for EOL'ed
releases.

I think the EOL is to give more clarity to downstream applications (such as
HBase) the guidance of which Hadoop release lines are still active.
Additionally, I don't think it is sustainable to maintain 6 concurrent
release lines in this big project, which is why I wanted to start this
discussion.

Thoughts?

Hi Wei-Chiu

Extremely sorry for the late reply here.
Cud u pls help to add more clarity on defining what will happen for
branch-2.8 when we call EOL.
Does this mean that, no more release coming out from this branch, or some
more additional guidelines?

This thread has been running for 7 days and no -1.

Don't think we've established a formal EOL process, but to publicize the
EOL, I am going to file a jira, update the wiki and post the announcement
to general@ and user@

[DISCUSS] EOL Hadoop branch-2.8

2020-02-17 Thread Wei-Chiu Chuang
The last Hadoop 2.8.x release, 2.8.5, was GA on September 15th 2018.

It's been 17 months since the release and the community by and large have
moved up to 2.9/2.10/3.x.

With Hadoop 3.3.0 over the horizon, is it time to start the EOL discussion
and reduce the number of active branches?
