Hi folks, I have put together a release candidate (rc0) for Hadoop 2.5.0.
The RC is available at: http://people.apache.org/~kasha/hadoop-2.5.0-RC0/ The RC tag in svn is here: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/tags/release-2.5.0-rc0/ The maven artifacts are staged at https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachehadoop-1007/ You can find my public key at: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/dist/KEYS Please try the release and vote. The vote will run for 5 days. Thanks Karthik
