Hello Apache MADlib community,

This is the vote for Apache MADlib 1.17.0 Release (RC2). It provides the
source release tarball and convenience binaries.

We didn't hold a vote for RC1 because we discovered a minor issue before
sending the vote.

The vote will run for at least 72 hours and will close on Thursday,
April 9, 2020 @ 23:59 UTC (16:59 PDT). A minimum of 3 binding +1 votes
and more binding +1 than binding -1 are required to pass.

The main goals of this release are:

New features

(MADLIB-1397)
    - DL: Fit and evaluate changes for asymmetric cluster config
(MADLIB-1393)
    - DL: Make param search fit() function work with existing evaluate and
predict (MADLIB-1387)
    - DL: ParamSearch: Add utility function for generating model selection
table (MADLIB-1375)
    - DL: Predict changes for asymmetric cluster config (MADLIB-1394)
    - DL: Preprocessor should evenly distribute data on an arbitrary number
of segments (MADLIB-1378)

large number of groups (MADLIB-1301)
    - DL: helper function for asymmetric cluster config (MADLIB-1390)

    - Docs: Enhance Installation Guides (MADLIB-1399)
    - Graph: SSSP should not show vertices in output table that are
unreachable (MADLIB-1415)
    - Knn - add zero check and output distance array (MADLIB-1370)
    - LDA: Add stopping criteria on perplexity to LDA (MADLIB-1351)
    - Summary: Last optional param in summary errors when NULL (MADLIB-1413)
    - Summary: Summary function has dups for MFV for approximate results
(MADLIB-1412)
    - SVM: Change default num_components for SVM to max(100,
2*num_features) (MADLIB-1384)

Bug fixes:
    - DL: Deep Learning module does not work with tables in non-public
schemas (MADLIB-1388)
    - DL: Exception during madlib_keras_fit when model_arch_id is passed as
NULL (MADLIB-1371)
    - DL: fit and fit multiple fail with memory exception in gpdb6
(MADLIB-1405)
    - DL: fit multiple takes up unnecessary disk space (MADLIB-1406)
    - DL: Intermediate tables are not dropped  (MADLIB-1404)
    - DL: MADlib Keras operations create too many threads (MADLIB-1372)
    - DL: metrics_elapsed_time for fit multi_model not captured correctly
(MADLIB-1403)
    - DL: predict fails with OOM in gpdb6 (MADLIB-1414)
    - DL: Remove final function for fit multiple (MADLIB-1416)
    - DL: Support schema qualified output tables for fit and fit_multiple
(MADLIB-1417)
    - Graph: APSP fails if both vertex id column and edge src column has
the same name (MADLIB-1407)
    - Graph: ASPS Path Function fails if src or dest column type is bigint
(MADLIB-1408)
    - Graph: Graph/wcc fails if the user specifies a schema for the output
table (MADLIB-1411)
    - Kmeans: k-means related functions must use same default distance
function (MADLIB-1383)
    - LDA: Term frequency and LDA - turn off notices (MADLIB-1395)
    - MADlib cannot be built on PowerPC machines with Linux (MADLIB-1410)
    - Pivot:  Pivot documentation should say "out_table" instead of
"output_table" (MADLIB-1376)

Other:
    - DL: Support up to Keras version 2.2.4, Tensorflow version 1.14
    - DL: If 'madlib_keras_fit_multiple_model()' is running on GPDB 5 and
some versions of GPDB 6, the database will keep adding to the disk space
(in proportion to model size) and will only release the disk space once the
fit multiple query has completed execution. This is not the case for GPDB
6.5.0+ where disk space is released during the fit multiple query.
    - DL: CUDA GPU memory cannot be released until the process holding it
is terminated.  This process holds the GPU memory until one of the
following two things happen: query finishes and user logs out of the
Postgres client/session; or, query finishes and user waits for the timeout
set by `gp_vmem_idle_resource_timeout`. The default value for this timeout
in Greenplum is 18 sec, but it can be changed.
    - DL: pg_temp is not allowed as an output table schema for
madlib_keras_fit_multiple_model().
    - Build: Enable current versions of bison
    - Build: Add cmake variable for gppkg filename
    - Build: Add pull request template
