Re: Next release?

I'm going to set aside some time early next week to see where we are
in the process and make sure nothing's blocking us.

Hey all,

There was a plan for someone (Maxime/Arthur?) to cut a 1.8.0 release
branch, and start the process. It's been many weeks since that
discussion, and I haven't heard anything.

Does someone on PMC want to volunteer? I can deploy 1.8.0 and start
working through issues once it's cut, and I know Sid and Bolke said
they could as well. I don't want to do it because I've already done
several Apache releases before. In the interest of high availability,
it'd be good for someone else to go through the motions.

Cheers,
Chris

Resolving PRs (i.e. cold case or recently submitted) & releasing new
versions in a timely manner are both part meeting community expectations.
In this case, they are not tied to each other - the Cold Case PR clean-up
activity is a call-to-action.

We can all run the RC once it is cut - we are waiting for some guidance
from Max right now.

I thought that the 15 November deadline for PR was in preparation for the
1.8 release. Do you need help with the release? I'm dedicating each week
some time on Airflow anyway (although it's more writing operators :-).

I believe the release manager is/was Max, though it might be Dan (@aoen).

Max, Chris, Bolke?

Any news on the 1.8 release?
