Hello all, I hope everyone is having a great holiday season. I'd like to officially start the discussion around Drill 1.21 release. Target date for a release candidate would be mid-January, but there's an external dependency on Calcite, so we'll see.
There is some work pending which I think we should definitely include in the next release which are: Upgrade to Calcite 1.33. (Note: Calcite hasn't released this yet, but likely will around the beginning of the year and we do not anticipate major modifications will be necessary to Drill to support this) DRILL-8376: Distribution UDFs DRILL-8372 Unfreed Buffers in Text Reader DRILL-8290: Shortcut recursive file listings DRILL-4232: Support for Except and Intersect Set Operators DRILL-8188: HDF5 to EVF2. (Not sure if @luoc is still working on this, but the PR hasn't been touched in a while and this is one of the last EVF1 format plugins) DRILL-8375: Incomplete support for non-projected complex vectors (Paul Rogers created a JIRA for this, but we don't have a PR yet, so I don't know if this will make it or not) Are there other issues or PRs that anyone would like to see included in the next Drill release? This is not a call to close the release, but just to start taking inventory on what we'd like to wrap up for the next release. Thanks everyone and Happy New Year! -- C
