[VOTE] Release Apache Traffic Server 7.0.0 (RC1)

I've prepared a release for 7.0.0 (RC1) which is the next major version of Apache Traffic Server.  This version breaks binary compatibility and plugins will need to be recompiled.  This is detailed in our Release Management document:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TS/Release+Management <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TS/Release+Management>

Release notes for 7.0.0:

A summary of the new features are here:

Randall Meyer ran into some pretty crippling issues with header_rewrite when testing this RC. He filed

	https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-4993 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-4993>


And thinking about this some more, maybe this is a wider problem, see also for example

	https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-4940 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-4940>


Even though TS-4940 can easily be worked around with the quotes, I don’t much like because it adds unnecessary incompatibilities. In addition, the quoting workaround Randall found on TS-4993 really makes no sense, since the leading / in the regex is an operator specifier.

I’ll work more on this tomorrow, but I think this might be a show stopper for this release (at least for us).

Cheers,

I think, but still not confirmed, that these issues were introduced with

	https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-4797 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-4797>
