All - Now that we have released 0.9.1 we should resurrect this thread and plan the theme for 0.10.0 release.
The filter [1] shows the JIRAs currently set for Fix Version 0.10.0, just as my previous proposal on this thread, it seems that LDAP related improvements are the dominate theme. With recent JIRA filings and patches provided, we have identified a few pain points related to LDAP search/lookup. A couple different approaches to optimize the group lookup may be competing, separate options or complementary - we need to rationalize exactly what optimizations are needed as part of this release. I will create a wiki page for Knox Improvement Proposal for the LDAP improvements where we can capture the direction and implementation details for this as the central theme for 0.10.0. Thoughts on the theme and KIP page for capturing a coherent proposal? thanks, --larry [1] - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KNOX-461?jql=project%20%3D%20KNOX%20AND%20status%20%3D%20Open%20AND%20resolution%20%3D%20Unresolved%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%200.10.0%20ORDER%20BY%20due%20ASC%2C%20priority%20DESC%2C%20created%20ASC On Mon, Jun 6, 2016 at 11:11 AM, larry mccay <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Sumit - > > I'm sorry that I missed this email! > > I am +1 on you as the release manager. > > I think that we should probably identify the driving features for 0.10.0 > first and then follow up that discussion with whether or not we can make > this a 1.0.0 but I believe that we would need to ensure two things: > > 1. package name clean up > 2.
