Hi All,

As there are more and more PRs coming to the Apache Carbon repository, the 
review and commit cycle of one PR takes longer time than before. One reason of 
this is because sometimes it is hard for committer to find the PR to review for 
certain feature. And in many cases PRs for same feature depends on one and 
another, it needs to be reviewed in an correct order, which makes this 
situation even worse.

To make the review more efficient and encourage developer to contribute more, I 
propose to include one optional tag in PR to reflect which feature the PR 
belongs to, like:

[CARBONDATA-JiraTicketNumer][FeatureName] title of the PR.   

For example, to raise a PR for aggregate table feature, one would raise a PR 
with title:
[CARBONDATA-1234][AggTable] Support create aggregate table 

By doing this, developer will have better idea of which feature does this PR 
contribute to.

As an example, I propose following feature name for 1.3 release.

1. AggTable
2. Streaming
3. DataMap

Please note that this feature name tag in the PR is not mandatory, and it is 
for committer's reference only. 
New feature name can be discussed via this maillist at anytime.


Regards,
Jacky
