I think we're very close to making this release. Please mark any issue that you think can and should make it into 1.6.0 as a Blocker with Fix-Version of 1.6.0 and provide a patch soon. On Monday I'll clear the 1.6.0 fix version from non-Blockers. Once there are no 1.6.0 Blockers left, I'll roll the release candidate. With luck that could happen Monday.
The current blockers are: AVRO-935: Update versions of Java dependencies. AVRO-930: Memory leak in C. Thanks, Doug
