Folks, I've created a version in Jira and a Wiki page for the alpha release: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/IGNITE/Apache+Ignite+3.0.0-alpha1
Based on the scope described earlier, all code changes are completed - only documentation is left. Code freeze starts now - only bug fixes are permitted. I'm planning to start the vote next week, presumably on Tuesday. -Val On Tue, Dec 22, 2020 at 9:56 AM Valentin Kulichenko < valentin.kuliche...@gmail.com> wrote: > Ivan, > > Yes, you are correct - no tables, caches, compute or any other major > features will be available. > > Alpha releases are generally produced in the middle of the development > process for internal testing.
