I suggest to make a release from master but at 15 April-1 May to prepare all release features. It's bad practice to announce release and cut master in one week. And in future put the approximate date of release for feature planning.
In ML we are in progress of changing API and it takes 1 month to stabilize that and fix and we hope to deliver that functionality in 2.8. чт, 7 марта 2019 г., 21:03 Denis Magda dma...@apache.org: > Dmitriy, > > Please find a copy-paste from the first conversation when impactful > usability problems were reported more than a month ago: > > *I played with the latest Oracle JDK 11 on Mac OS Mojave.
