Hi, I was preparing the first rc of 3.6.0 but unfortunately it failed as I have found a blocker issue
This is the issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-3695 The short version of the story is that the source tarbal does not reflect the git repository, some directories are missing and there is some curn in the c client. I am working on a fix Meanwhile....if you have cycles it would be very helpful if you take a look to the staged artifacts of 3.6.0-rc0. you can find them here: http://home.apache.org/~eolivelli/zookeeper-3.6.0-candidate-0/ the Maven staging repository is; https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachezookeeper-1045 I won't call for a vote for 3.6.0-rc0. The first call will be for 3.6.0-rc1 as I have already created a tag for release-3.6.0-0 and I don't want to mess up the repository of anyone who already "git fetched" the tag. https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/commits/release-3.6.0-0 Stay tuned Enrico
