Thanks for suggestions, Jason and Kihwal! +1 on releasing 2.8.2 on latest branch-2.8 too. Practically, if branch-2.8.2 cannot be abandoned/replaced (suspect all branches are read-only now), I will manually merge all commits that not landed on 2.8.2 yet.

Because branch-2.8.2 was cut so long ago it is missing a lot of fixes that are in branch-2.8. There also are a lot of JIRAs that claim they are fixed in 2.8.2 but are not in branch-2.8.2. Having the 2.8.2 release be based on recent activity in branch-2.8 would solve both of these issues, and we'd only need to move the handful of JIRAs that have marked themselves correctly as fixed in 2.8.3 to be fixed in 2.8.2.

While I was committing a blocker for 2.7.4, I noticed some of the jiras are back-ported to 2.7, but missing in branch-2.8.2. Perhaps it is safer and easier to simply rebranch 2.8.2.

Now, we should work towards 2.8.2 release which aim for production deployment. The focus obviously is to fix blocker/critical issues [2], bug-fixes and *no* features / improvements. We currently have 13 blocker/critical issues, and 10 of them are Patch Available. I plan to cut an RC in a month - target for releasing before end of Aug., to give enough time for outstanding blocker / critical issues. Will start moving out any tickets that are not blockers and/or won't fit the timeline. For progress of releasing effort, please refer our release wiki [2]. Please share thoughts if you have any.
