Okay, so now that 1.8.0 is wrapping up, I'd like to push out a release of
1.6.6, and plan to cease active development on that branch.
+1
This will allow us to focus our development and bugfixes on the latest
releases, while closing out the 1.6 line with a rollup of the bugfixes
we've worked so far.
Does anybody wish to act as release manager for 1.6.6? Perhaps somebody
who
hasn't done a release? If not, I'll volunteer to take it on, but I want
to
give somebody else the opportunity first.
Currently, I see around 50 issues for 1.6.6 in JIRA. I've bumped a few
already, so there's only a few left, which could be bumped or not,
depending on if they get finished quickly.
Alright, so I'll just take this one on, to knock it out. I'd like to wait
until ACCUMULO-4391 is merged, though.
Makes sense given the level of effort already. The entire change strikes
me as a bit scary. I hope someone will run some extra testing to make
sure that we aren't introducing obvious regressions in a .6 bugfix release.
