All,

We're now just **two days away** from my proposed RC date! That means we're
very close to "pencils down" on new features for 1.1.

I believe most of the major features we had outstanding have landed. The
notable exception being HBASE-11339 MOB. I think Jon is close to calling a
merge vote for trunk, but I'm concerned that waiting for this feature to
percolate back will put us at risk for a release in time for HBaseCon. If
MOB is important to you, please speak up and help out with the final
testing.

We still have some nastiness to sort out in the way of blockers, so there's
work to be done in the mean time. This list has grown since my last update
and a couple of these don't have an owner.

 - HBASE-13149 and HBASE-13339 are making a strong argument for us to bump
the Hadoop version to 2.6 for this release. This likely has compatibility
ramifications. Someone needs to **do some legwork** on the impact of an
upgrade and **make a strong argument** one way or the other. */Unassigned/*.
 - HBASE-13444 looks like it just needs some **patience** to try some
permutations. Smells a little like class path issues, perhaps related
to HBASE-13149. */Unassigned/*.
 - HBASE-13452 just needs some **arithmetic** to verify sizes are accurate
and some pruning of log messages. */Unassigned/*.

Volunteers please form an orderly queue to your nearest JIRA enlistment
office.

Yours,
-n
