Hah, funny you should ask! I was just thinking that I should send out a
note.
* Rajeshbabu and Sergey are trying to track down a nasty issue that the
IndexScrutiny tool has caught where there are dangling index records
(PHOENIX-4534)
* Rajeshbabu is also looking into some local index failures
* Ankit has done some testing of the phoenix-hive integration, I think
phoenix-spark is also looking OK
Last I chatted with folks, they were seeing >90% pass rate of the test
suite which seems pretty good to me. My plan was to work on a beta
release soon now that we have a beta from HBase. Things are generally
functional as of now -- I think getting it into the hands of folks to
get more people poking it would be great.
Maybe rc0 next week?

How are things looking with the 5.0.0 alpha/beta on HBase 2.x?

Good point. Perhaps "alpha" would be a better label?
IIUC, the issue is that we need the HBase release, and then a Tephra
release, and then we can get Tephra fixed for Phoenix5. Perhaps Ankit can
provide some more color to the situation.

Isn't Tephra integration mandatory for transaction support? What happens
to
a user who has TRANSACTIONAL=true tables when they upgrade? This can't
really fail gracefully. I guess transaction support is still marked
'beta',
but still, this would be a regression of functionality in "base Phoenix".

Talked to Rajeshbabu and Ankit offline this morning.
Sounds like there are a few integration points which are still lacking:
* phoenix-hive: PHOENIX-4423
* phoenix-spark: untested (probably broken against newest Spark)
* phoenix-kafka: untested (probably broken against newest Kafka -- see
PHOENIX-4515 PHOENIX-4516)
* Tephra integration: Needs a new release of Tephra with some fixes
Ankit helped with.
I plan to not consider these 5.0.0-alpha/beta release blockers, we'll
just call those out which we don't get tested/fixed.

Happy New Year folks!
I'd like to test the waters: what do people think about trying to get a
5.0.0 "beta" release out to the community before the end of January?
HBase is doing the same right now with 2.0.0. My thinking is that if
things are stable "enough", getting a base for people to use a 5.0
Phoenix release more easily, we can catch more bugs and get a better
product out the door.
Thoughts/concerns? I'm happy to RM.
