hi folks, Tomorrow is December 1. The last major Arrow release (0.11.0) took place on October 8. Given how much work has happened in the project in the last ~2 months, I think it would be great to complete the next major release before the end-of-year holidays set in.
I've been curating the JIRA backlog the last couple of weeks, and have just created a 0.12.0 release wiki page to help us stay organized https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ARROW/Arrow+0.12.0+Release Given that there are only 3 full working weeks between now and Christmas, I think we should be in position to cut a release by the end of the week of December 10, i.e. by Friday December 14. Not all of the TODO issues have to be completed to make the release, but it would be good to push to complete as much as possible. Please help by reviewing the backlog, and if possible, assigning issues to yourself that you'd like to pursue in the next 2 weeks. Let me know if this sounds reasonable, or any concerns. Thanks Wes
