I'd like to see the patch for AVRO-350, https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-350 , applied as it is a compatibility break from Avro-1.2. The patch has been reviewed, and I think it just needs to be applied.
Otherwise, +1 to a release. -----Original Message----- From: Doug Cutting [mailto:cutt...@apache.org] Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2010 2:20 PM To: avro-dev@hadoop.apache.org Subject: Avro 1.3 RC soon? I'd like to roll an Avro 1.3 release candidate soon. The biggest thing we're missing is interop testing for various implementations. Ruby and Python both have data file implementations, so this should not be hard to add to these. This requires two scripts, one to write a data file to build/test/interop/data/$lang.avro that uses the schema in share/test/schemas/interop.avsc. The second then just needs to read all of the data files in build/test/interop/data/. These scripts should both be invoked by the top-level build.sh. RPC interop tests would be nice to have too, but I'm not sure we should hold the release for that. Do folks agree that these are the right priorities for the 1.3 release? If so, do we have volunteers who can get data file interop tests implemented soon? Ideally we might roll a release candidate late this week. Thanks, Doug
