This is the same thing as ever for MLlib: Once a branch has been cut, we stop merging features. Now that features are not being merged, we can begin QA. I strongly prefer to track QA work in JIRA and to have those items targeted for 2.2. I also believe that certain QA tasks should be blockers; e.g., if we have not checked for binary or Java compatibility issues in new APIs, then I am not comfortable signing off on a release. I agree with Michael that these don't block testing on a release; the point of these issues is to do testing.
I'll close the roadmap JIRA though.
