Two more things to mention: 1. I am thinking of merge this dev-metadata branch back to the master. Both these two branches have the same version 2.7.0-SNAPSHOT and they together consist of v2.7’s release candidates. While they are evolving at the same time concurrently, conflicts keep happening. I have been kept merging the master branch to dev-metadata to try to avoid conflicts to the most extend during the development of dev-metadata. Now, since the changes in dev-metadata are stable enough, at least it won’t be a block for the development in master (which is also the biggest concern why we created this new branch), I think it’s time for us to merge the changes back and work on the unified master branch.
2. Is there any plan for the release of OPS? Most of the new features introduced in v2.7 are service governance related abilities and most users have get used to using Dubbo OPS to do interoperability with their Dubbo services. Thus I think it would be great if an OPS version supporting these features can be released at the same time as v2.7 or slightly after it . @Minxuan @Majinkai, I know you guys are working on OPS project, any news to update?
