There is an Apache Slack, but very few people are active over there.

I have pushed ur mail to common-dev@ so someone interested can help review.

Just a reminder Opensource committers are voluntary contributors, you can’t expect people to just jump on PRs to review as soon as they are created. It takes time, maybe more than you expect for changes in area most commiters aren’t experienced.

Anyway good luck contributing. If nobody comes to rescue. I will try to chase it maybe on some weekend when I have some bandwidth.

Hello,
Is there an ETA?
Is there a chat room?

Can we do this the old fashioned way? Review, run the test locally and merge? 

Again I really want to stress this: It is inefficient to communicate with the projects. It's like send an email, wait a day, send another email, similar issues with problem I am having with Livy, trying to understand why this is like that is anyone able to review something.

Hi Edward,
Sorry for the late reply.
I’m already following up on this and have opened apache/hadoop#8162 to address it (switching the precommit Docker image default Java from JDK 8 to JDK 17).
About the error: the build is being compiled with JDK 8 (javac 1.8), but the Maven compiler configuration passes --add-modules (e.g., jdk.javadoc), which is a Java 9+ module-system option. JDK 8’s javac doesn’t understand that flag, so it fails with:
Fatal error compiling: invalid flag: --add-modules
Best,
Hualong Zhang

I am aware it is the holidays, but it is very had to chase random contributors over email, to say "Hey I think the build bot is broken", would be easier in a chat do you all still do the IRC channel?

Hey friends,

I don't know if you all hang out on IRC or discord  to poke people to ask for reviews.  I checked the dev mailing list and see mostly auto-email. 

Consider this a poke. Thanks,
Edward
