Hi all,
 Since 3.3.3 release is out the door, I am starting this thread to
start discussion for 3.4.0 release.

My plan for 3.4 is to include the following features/enhancements to
the 3.4 release. The following is the list of features I think would
be great in 3.4:

1) ZOOKEEPER-859 (native windows client)
2) ZOOKEEPER-702 (failure detection model)
3) ZOOKEEPER-784 (read only mode for ZK)
4) ZOOKEEPER-938 (kerberos authentication)
5) ZOOKEEPER-999 (rpms for zookeeper)
6) ZOOKEEPER-856 (connection imbalance betweek ZK servers)
7) ZOOKEEPER-1000 (SSL support, this should be easy with ZOOKEEPER-938)

Also, there will be critical bug fixes that have already been ported
to 3.3.3 and some others like ZOOKEEPER-932.

I would like to be the release manager for 3.4 release with the above
plan for the 3.4 release candidate. Comments/suggestions/rebuke are
welcome! :)

thanks
mahadev

Also,
 I am aiming for April mid week for the release.

thanks
mahadev

Hi Mahadev,
     Thanks a lot for considering ZOOKEEPER-938 for inclusion in 3.4.0!
I'm excited and looking forward to peoples' feedback. As an introduction
to playing with a Kerberized Zookeeper, please have a look at my "Up and
Running with Secure Zookeeper" documentation:

Hi Mahadev,

there are many more issues in jira marked for 3.4.0. Do you plan to postpone
those? What is the reason to do the 3.4.0 release now without those instead of
waiting a bit more? Or what is already in 3.4.0 what needs to get out?

Some example issues I care about for 3.4.0:
ZOOKEEPER-961, ZOOKEEPER-911, ZOOKEEPER-837, ZOOKEEPER-899, ZOOKEEPER-847, and
others...

On the other hand ZOOKEEPER-999 is very new, not yet reviewed and on a quick
scan I think the patch has major problems.

Best regards,

Thomas Koch, http://www.koch.ro

Hi Thomas,

 I specifically did not mention any bug fixes or improvements since it
would make for a much bigger list. I will be running through the list
and comment on those to ask folks if they can get the jira in for the
3.4 release. I want to get a 3.4 release out to be able to have a
feature release.

The last feature release we had is :

3.3.0 Release Date: 25/Mar/10 Improved manageability and simplified
client development process.
So, we desperately need a feature release to add stuff like kerberos,
read only mode, native windows clients and others.
I would be happy to have the ones you listed on 3.4 release. I think
most of them should get in.

Also, if you find any issues on ZOOKEEPER-999 please raise it on the
jira. I'd really like to have rpms for ZK.

thanks
mahadev

It would be nice to include BK jiras as well, like 998 and 1001.

Hi Thomas, historically we block a release if it has "blocker" jiras
assigned. Anything short of that gets pushed out to a subsequent
release. Of course contributors can submit changes that are not
blockers prior to the release, these typically get included, but it's
up the the RM to make the call:

I'd really love to do something with 922 if I could get some more feedback on the design. This is a very desirable feature for our users and I should be able to knock something out in the 3.4 timeframe.

Thanks,
Camille

Subject: [DISCUSS] 3.4.0 release plan of ZooKeeper.

Hi all,
 Since 3.3.3 release is out the door, I am starting this thread to
start discussion for 3.4.0 release.

My plan for 3.4 is to include the following features/enhancements to
the 3.4 release. The following is the list of features I think would
be great in 3.4:

1) ZOOKEEPER-859 (native windows client)
2) ZOOKEEPER-702 (failure detection model)
3) ZOOKEEPER-784 (read only mode for ZK)
4) ZOOKEEPER-938 (kerberos authentication)
5) ZOOKEEPER-999 (rpms for zookeeper)
6) ZOOKEEPER-856 (connection imbalance betweek ZK servers)
7) ZOOKEEPER-1000 (SSL support, this should be easy with ZOOKEEPER-938)

Also, there will be critical bug fixes that have already been ported
to 3.3.3 and some others like ZOOKEEPER-932.

I would like to be the release manager for 3.4 release with the above
plan for the 3.4 release candidate. Comments/suggestions/rebuke are
welcome! :)

thanks
mahadev

Nice!! I would certainly bug Ben for it.

Feel free to jump on IRC and bug folks for feedback! :)

thanks
