Hi Karan, I hope I can answer,

We are working towards having the legal papers signed, as is expected that
Apache Druid PMC and the ASF will require for the code donation.

However, I believe this won’t need coordination with the Apache Druid
release. The intent is to suggest a separate repository and release cycle.
This is similar to how Apache Flink manages the Operator sub level project.



Best regards,
Eyal Yurman
