Hi Deni and others, Since you last sent this, a few things have happened:
* We found ongoing, persistent crashes in couchjs after upgrading to SpiderMonkey 60. The bulk of these appear to have been removed by disabling the Ion JIT. The rest appear relegated to a specific architecture (arm64), where we need to enforce running against 1.8.5 for now. Paul is working this one through #2449. * In CI runs we're seeing hung Erlang beam.smp processes, consuming 100% CPU. We have a traceback from Nick's laptop as well. It's not clear this is entirely related to couchjs crashing, especially because it's happening on FreeBSD when Jenkins attempts to kill off CouchDB forcibly during a test run. This is being tracked in #2437. There are a couple of new tickets: * #1783 needs attention; Tony Sun was the original developer here and we're hoping someone can carry his work across the finish line * #2435/#2218 covers documentation work that must be done before 3.0 can release. There's quite a lot of this, unfortunately, and a separate milestone has been created in the documentation repository to track it: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-documentation/milestone/1 I'm about 75% of the way done with the Release Notes PR, but it is still draft status and not yet ready to be reviewed. * #1927 is a nice-to-have that will make our RC process cleaner, but isn't mandatory. Am hoping Dave can help with this, but if not I can give some attention once the documentation work is in hand. * #2457 is a chore to just add a few missed default config params to the default.ini file we ship. * (pending) Our Docker and packaging repos need to be updated with the outcome of the SpiderMonkey changes that have been made. The goal is to use SM60 if possible, reverting to 1.8.5 when it is not available upstream or if there are platform-specific bugs (as with arm64). On 2020-01-08 16:55, Denitsa Burroughs wrote:
Hi all, Thanks to everyone who contributed with closing the remaining 3.0 roadmap items/epics. We are getting very close to RC! There are a couple of outstanding lower level issues that also need to be addressed and any help here would be greatly appreciated. I am adding owners to each issue based on the comments in the ticket but please feel free to let me know if that's incorrect.

Any other issues that need to be tagged for 3.0? Thanks, Deni
