Re: [VOTE] Proposal to release version 1.10

2019-10-31 Thread Christopher
+1 to creating a 1.10.0 derived from 1.9 that bumps the Java requirement to 8, and doing so instead of releasing 1.9.4. I think the java version bump will help with maintaining patches that can be more easily backported to 1.x. If this vote passes, I will advocate for 1.10 to be used as the LTS in

[VOTE] Proposal to release version 1.10

2019-10-31 Thread Ed Coleman
As suggested in the LTS discussion ([LAZY][VOTE] A basic, but concrete, LTS proposal), I'm breaking this out to as a separate thread to keep the topic distinct. The proposal - I would like to start the formal release process for a 1.10 version that would change the java language level to java 8.

I see your point about 1.10 and the difficulty of upgrading to 2.x and Hadoop 3. I would be in favor of doing a release of 1.10 and releasing that as the first LTS to replace 1.9 if we limit the changes between 1.9 and 1.10 to the following: 1. Update Java minimum requirements to Java 8 2. Make Ha

Another dimension to this discussion that I'd like to address is the provision for a 1.10 version. In fact, I lean towards having 1.10 nominated as the pre-2.x LTS version instead of a 1.9.x. I am in favor of the basic LTS proposal, but I think that additional accommodations to ease the pre-2.x t

I am in favor of the LTS release schedule. I find that having a more structured but still flexible plan for releases benefits both the users of accumulo and developers as it gives us more defined trajectory on how to reach certain goals. My only issue with some LTS release projects is that sometim

Seems fine to me. Any expectations on how upgrades work within an LTS release? How about across LTS releases? Some specific situations to mull over: * Can rolling upgrade in an LTS release (to new patch version) with no downtime. (e.g. 1.9.1 to 1.9.3) * Can any LTS release (1.9.1) be guarant

+1 I am in favor of the LTS idea because I think it makes it more efficient for everyone to easily come together and focus their efforts in the same direction for the benefit of everyone. I think this is a really good starting plan for LTS. Overtime we will probably find issues with the plan and
