Hi, I checked the following things:
* no dependencies added or changed since Flink 1.5.4 * compiling the source distribution without tests succeeds * compiling the source distribution with tests fails (see exception appended below). When I restart the compilation, it goes past flink-hbase but fails later in another module. The compilation failure might be related to my environment as the compilation of the Flink 1.6.2 RC1 also failed due to some issue related to logging classes. We should check if others can compile the sources with tests. Until we don't know what causes the issue, I vote -1 to release this RC.
