It would be great if you can summarize these reasons here for future reference.

In your earlier email regarding 1.9 release you also mention issues with moving 
up to Java 8 and some issues with Solr-7 integration. Does this mean that you 
have a better idea of how to deal with these issues now?

This looks like “refactoring change” so it doesn’t actually change any existing 
functionality - right?

Same here - this seems to be a refactoring change which doesn’t affect any 
existing functionality.

I think you are referring to some planned follow-up work to actually solve the 
authorization problem for Hive 2 - right?

What is your impression once you looked at these issues - do you think that you 
should be able to fix majority of these or do you think that these ca nbe 
simply moved out of the release?
