Hi, The Apache Kudu team is happy to announce the second release candidate for Apache Kudu 1.7.0.

The artifacts have been staged here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/kudu/1.7.0-RC2/ Java convenience binaries in the form of a Maven repository are staged here: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachekudu-1019/ It is tagged in Git as 1.7.0-RC2 and the corresponding git hash is the following: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=kudu.git;a=commit;h=472ae66565d9a8efdc81f16568249d7c4b108251 The release notes can be found here: https://github.com/apache/kudu/blob/1.7.0-RC2/docs/release_notes.adoc The KEYS file to verify the artifact signatures can be found here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/kudu/KEYS I'd suggest going through the README and the release notes, building Kudu, and running the unit tests. Testing out the Maven repo would also be appreciated. The vote will run until Tuesday, March 6th at 11PM PDT. We'd normally run a vote for 3 full days but since we're headed into the weekend now let's do 4 days instead.
