Hi, All.
Since Apache ORC Format 1.0.0 was released last week,
we can start Apache ORC 2.0.0.
https://github.com/apache/orc/milestone/20 (January 19, 2024)
I volunteer as the release manager of Apache ORC 2.0.0
and start to prepare the release.
As the first step, `branch-2.0` is created as a soft feature freeze
which means
- `main` branch becomes 2.1.0-SNAPSHOT (ORC-1573)
- `branch-2.0` becomes 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT
- the members of Apache ORC PMC can still backport new features to
`branch-2.0`.
https://github.com/apache/orc/tree/branch-2.0
Please test branch-2.0 and let me know any bugs or
late arrival features if you want to include into Apache ORC 2.0.0 still.
Thanks,
Dongjoon.
