[Moving to new message thread] Thanks for bringing this up, Jordan.
IIRC, this was more a convention than a technical reason. Though I could be completely misremembering this. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Jordan West <jorda...@gmail.com> Date: Wed, Feb 19, 2020 at 10:13 AM Subject: Re: 20200217 4.0 Status Update To: <dev@cassandra.apache.org> On Mon, Feb 17, 2020 at 12:52 PM Jeff Jirsa <jji...@gmail.com> wrote: > > beyond the client proto change being painful for anything other than major > releases > > This came up during the community meeting today and I wanted to bring a question about it to the list: could someone who is *very* familiar with the client proto share w/ the list why changing the proto in anything other than a major release is so difficult? I hear this a lot and it seems to be fact. So that all of us don't have to go read the code, a brief summary would be super helpful. Or if there is a ticket that already covers this even better! I'd also be curious if there have ever been any thoughts to address it as it seems to be a consistent hurdle during the release cycle and one that tends to further increase scope.
