I too can help with the release process.
Now there are 0 blocker and 6 critical issues targeted for 2.7.4.
https://s.apache.org/HsIu
If there are critical/blocker issues that need to be fixed in
branch-2.7, please set Target Version/s to 2.7.4. That way the issues
can be found by the above query.
I'll check if there are conflicts among JIRA, git commit log, and the
change logs.
Regards,
Akira

Subject: Re: About 2.7.4 Release
Our release steps are documented on the wiki:
2.6/2.7:
https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToReleasePreDSBCR
2.8+:
https://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToRelease
I think given the push toward 2.8 and 3.0, there's less interest in
streamlining the 2.6 and 2.7 release processes. CHANGES.txt is the biggest
pain, and that's fixed in 2.8+.
Current pain points for 2.8+ include:
# fixing up JIRA versions and the release notes, though I somewhat addressed
this with the versions script for 3.x # making and staging an RC and sending
the vote email still requires a lot of manual steps # publishing the release is
also quite manual
I think the RC issues can be attacked with enough scripting. Steve had an ant
file that automated a lot of this for slider. I think it'd be nice to have a
nightly Jenkins job that builds an RC, since I've spent a day or two for each
3.x alpha fixing build issues.
Publishing can be attacked via a mix of scripting and revamping the darned
website. Forrest is pretty bad compared to the newer static site generators out
there (e.g. need to write XML instead of markdown, it's hard to review a
staging site because of all the absolute links, hard to customize, did I
mention XML?), and the look and feel of the site is from the 00s. We don't
actually have that much site content, so it should be possible to migrate to a
new system.

I don't think there should be any linkage between releasing 2.8.0 and
2.7.4. If we have a volunteer for releasing 2.7.4, we should go full
speed ahead. We still need a volunteer from a PMC member or a
committer as some tasks may require certain privileges, but I don't
think it precludes working with others to close down the release.
I for one would like to see more frequent releases, and being able to
automate release steps more would go a long way.

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).

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?

Akira
