For release numbers, 1.10 (then 1.11, 1.12, …) seems like a good idea. At first it may seem odd to go to 1.10 from 1.9. Might people get confused between 1.10 and 1.1.0? But, there is precedence. Tomcat’s latest 7-series release is 7.0.72. Java is on 8u112. And so on.
I like the idea of moving to 2.0 later when the team introduces a major change, rather than by default just because the numbers roll around. For example, Hadoop when to 2.x when YARN was introduced. Impala appears to have moved to 2.0 when they added Spill to disk for some (all?) operators. - Paul > On Oct 28, 2016, at 10:34 AM, Sudheesh Katkam <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi Drillers, > > We have a reasonable number of fixes and features since the last release > [1].
