>>>> Can anyone confirm, is there any specific reason in the naming convention in this release and to make it as "alpha". As we know, 3.5.x release contains many critical features like, dynamic reconfig, SSL feature etc. Naturally, community would focus on stabilization: resolving blocker bugs and freezing public APIs in an incremental way. Starts with a series of alpha releases, so people can run and test with, once we address all the blockers and feel comfortable with the APIs & remaining jiras we then switch to beta. Please go through the following link, which gives you idea about 3.5 release plans - http://markmail.org/message/ymxliy2rrwjc2pmo
>>>> As per my understanding Alpha means its beta release and not recommended to use in production, however as per below mail >>>> it seems many customers using the alpha version, so there is no harm to use this version. Like I mentioned in my previous mail thread, 3.5.3 release is underway and contains many fixes. Probably, you could try this upcoming version. Meantime, you could setup test cluster using the latest available version and please feel free to report issues, if any. It looks like there are lots of people interested in seeing 3.5 stable version, and if we get everyone to contribute more patches and code reviews, we should be able to do it sooner. From the dev/user community mail threads, I could see many companies are using ZooKeeper http://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.5.2-alpha/ latest release and reporting queries/improvements etc. http://zookeeper-user.578899.n2.nabble.com/Question-on-Release-3-5-x-td7581755.html . Probably, other folks can share thoughts.
