Is there any reason to wait for 2.8 with 2.7.4?

Unfortunately the previous  thread about release cadence has been ended without 
final decision. But if I understood well, there was more or less an agreement 
about that it would be great to achieve more frequent releases, if possible 
(with or without written rules and EOL policy).

I personally prefer to be more closer to the scheduling part of the proposal:

"A minor release on the latest major line should be every 6 months, and a 
maintenance release on a minor release (as there may be concurrently
maintained minor releases) every 2 months".

I don't know what is the hardest part of creating new minor/maintenance 
releases. But if the problems are technical (smoketesting, unit tests, old 
release script, anything else) I would be happy to do any task for new 
maintenance releases (or more frequent releases).

Regards,
Marton

Probably 2.8.0 will be released soon.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13866?focusedCommentId=15898379&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-15898379

I'm thinking 2.7.4 release process starts after 2.8.0 release,
so 2.7.4 will be released in April or May. (hopefully)

Thoughts?

Regards,
Akira
