Hi all, I would like to branch "branch-1.1" from the current HEAD of branch-1, and proceed to make a release candidate for hadoop-1.1.0 from it. I'm also hereby offering to be Release Manager for branch-1.1, as I have been for branch-1.0.
There's a LOT of stuff in branch-1, over 80 patches not in the branch-1.0 line, so I anticipate the need for some stabilization. So I'll float the RC0 for a week or so, before possibly calling a vote on it. Sound okay? Somewhat to my surprise, I found that our bylaws require a seven-day formal vote on this proposal. So, please vote. Voting will close on Thursday 24 May, 7pm PDT. Best regards, --Matt
