Supporting both as a next step is logical, removing support for 2 in the next year or two seems reasonable enough. Gotta rip the band aid off at some point. On Fri, Jun 1, 2018 at 2:34 AM Michael Burman wrote: > Hi, > > Deprecating in this context does not mean removing it or it being > replaced

DataStax invested millions of dollars into Cassandra, tens of thousands of man hours, hosted hundreds of events and has been a major factor in the success of the project. ScyllaDB wants us to change the C* protocol in order to improve features in a competing database which contributes nothing back

It sounds to me (please correct me if I'm wrong) like Jeff is arguing that releasing 4.0 in 2 months isn't worth the effort of evaluating it, because it's a big task and there's not enough stuff in 4.0 to make it worthwhile. If that is the case, I'm not quite sure how increasing the surface area o

There's always more stuff to try to shoehorn in. We've done big releases with all the things, it never was stable. We tried the opposite end of the spectrum, release every month, that really wasn't great either. Personally I'd be OK with stopping new features by the end of this month and aiming

That’s exactly what I was thinking too. There’s also nothing preventing features from being merged into trunk after we create the 4.0 branch, which in my opinion is a better approach than trying to jam everything in right before the release. On Thu, Apr 5, 2018 at 12:06 PM Jason Brown wrote: > M

To be fair, reaper in 2016 only worked with 2.0 and was just sitting around, more or less. Since then we've had 401 commits changing tens of thousands of lines of code, dealing with fault tolerance, repair retries, scalability, etc. We've had 1 reaper node managing repairs across dozens of cluster

Java 8 was marked as EOL in the middle of last year, I hope we wouldn't require it for Cassandra 4. At this point I feel like we should already be targeting Java 10 at a minimum. Personally I'd prefer not to tie our releases to any vendor / product / package's release schedule. On Fri, Mar 23,

There's an incredible amount of work that would need to be done in order to make any of this happen. Basically a full rewrite of the entire codebase. Years of effort. The codebase would have to move to a shared-nothing actor & message based communication mechanism before any of this is possible.
