Rakesh R commented on ZOOKEEPER-2672: ------------------------------------- bq. Rakesh R and Michael Han, Even though I am leaning towards removing the file too, I think at least one voting round on dev@ or user@ before removing CHANGE.txt would be nice. [~eribeiro], I have sent couple of mails about this. Please refer [zk user mailing list discussion thread|http://zookeeper-user.578899.n2.nabble.com/Re-CHANGES-txt-td7582909.html] I believe, this jira needs to be concluded(to avoid confusions - after the migration to git CHANGE.txt is not the source of truth) before cutting 3.4.10 release. I'm planning to remove CHANGE.txt file in 2 days time frame, 8 February 2017, 6:00 PM (PST), if there is no objection.
