Looking at the JIRA queue for 3.3.2 I see that there are two blockers, one is currently PA and the other is pretty close (it has a patch that should go in soon).
There are a few JIRAs that already went into the branch that are important to get out there ASAP, esp ZOOKEEPER-846 (fix close issue found by hbase). One issue that's been slowing us down is hudson. The trunk was not passing it's hudson validation, which was causing a slow down in patch review. Mahadev and I fixed this. However with recent changes to the hudson hw/security environment the patch testing process (automated) is broken. Giri is working on this. In the mean time we'll have to test ourselves. Committers -- be sure to verify RAT, Findbugs, etc... in addition to verifying via test. I've setup an additional Hudson environment inside Cloudera that also verifies the trunk/branch. If issues are found I will report them (unfortunately I can't provide access to cloudera's hudson env to non-cloudera employees at this time). I'd like to clear out the PAs asap and get a release candidate built. Anyone see a problem with shooting for an RC mid next week? Patrick
