Hi Arun, Given that the 2.0.3 release is intended to reflect the growing stability of YARN, and the QJM work will be included in 2.0.3 which provides a complete HDFS HA solution, I think it's time we consider removing the "-alpha" label from the release version. My preference would be to remove the label entirely, but we could also perhaps call it "-beta" or something.
