Re: Testing out JIRA as replacement for cwiki tracking of 4.0 quality testing

[Jordan West]

Thanks for taking this up Josh. I'm for whatever we think will result in a
more accurate view of progress. Edit access has been a friction point. I'd
like to hear from others as well too but generally I'm +1 to giving it a
shot.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 4.0-alpha3

[Michael Shuler]

+1, with notes attached.

Thanks for this release build, Mick - good work.

Summary of notes:
- Artifact set checks out OK with regards to key sigs and checksums.
- CASSANDRA-14962 is an issue when not using the current deb build 
method (using new docker method results in different source artifact 
creation & use). The docker rpm build suffers the same source problem 
and the src.rpm is significantly larger, since I think it copies all the 
downloaded maven artifacts in. It's fine for now, though :)

- UNRELEASED deb build

If anyone is interested in some basic quick download allthethings and 
check 'em, commands and console txt might be interesting. Next step 
would be to do each package-type install and startup functional testing, 
but I don't have that time right now :)


Warm regards,
Michael
