+
+== Community Notes
+
+_Updates on Cassandra Enhancement Proposals (CEPs), how to contribute, and other community activities._
+
+_For newcomers to the project, we have a useful xref:development/index.adoc[‘Contributing to Cassandra’] page for how to get involved and get started._
+
+_We also recommend taking a look at two Jira ticket queries we’ve created. One is a Kanban board for https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=496&quickFilter=2252[“Failing Tests” tickets that are unassigned^] and the other corresponds to our https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=484&quickFilter=2162&quickFilter=2160[Low Hanging Fruit or “Starter Tickets”^] for 4.0.x and 4.1.x. Feel free to self-select a ticket to work on._
+
+_Any of these tickets should be of appropriate complexity for someone new to the project to tackle. Just remember to assign yourself to the ticket and acknowledge the status, such as ‘Work in Progress’ and ‘Needs Comitter/Patch Available’ when you submit your patch. You can also reach out on the https://the-asf.slack.com/[ASF Slack^] in the #cassandra-dev Slack channel. Use @cassandra_mentors to contact our mentor team!_
+
+You can also read PMC member Josh McKenzie’s https://lists.apache.org/thread/1b4bcpcwyfz8x5hgg2mo2gk7vznbg371[latest bi-weekly update^] for ongoing discussions and the latest on ticket progress.
+
+=== Announced
+
+Now that we have hit our one-year branch and froze the code for the release of Apache Cassandra 4.1, expect to see more blogs and emails over the coming weeks about Cassandra 4.1 and why you should be excited. (In fact, you can read about xref:blog/Apache-Cassandra-4.1-Features-Guardrails-Framework.adoc[the new Guardrails Framework] and xref:blog/Apache-Cassandra-4.1-Features-Client-side-Password-Hashing.adoc[new security features] on the blog now.)
+
+=== Announced
+
+:!figure-caption:
+
+.Join the community as we celebrate the release of Cassandra 4.1 and have some fun in the process. Free T-shirts may be involved.
+image::blog/apache-cassandra-world-party-logo.png[Apache Cassandra World Party]
+
+We are excited to announce the second annual Apache Cassandra World Party (CWP) on *Wednesday, July 20, 2022*. We will be following the fun and lightning-fast format from last year’s party. Speakers have five minutes and five slides that auto-advance every minute. You can read about the details here.
+
+You can submit your talks https://sessionize.com/apache-cassandra-4-1-world-party/[here^] until June 17 at 11.59 pm UTC. We will also be posting more details on the Cassandra blog in coming weeks.
+
+=== Announced
+
+*Patrick McFadin* has kickstarted a monthly Cassandra marketing meeting. As we get closer to the release of Cassandra 4.1, meetings are likely to become more frequent to organize such things as the *Cassandra World Party* (see below). You can catch up on what is being planned https://docs.google.com/document/d/11ANJcz1BuXcTPoVZNo4o00SMp6smVzQufvXsrqs0IlE/edit?usp=sharing[here^].
+
+=== Announced
+
+The CFP for the 2-day Cassandra track at https://www.apachecon.com/acna2022/[ApacheCon North America^] has closed, but for those comfortable with traveling, you can register for the event which will take place between October 3-6 at the Sheraton Hotel, New Orleans.
+
+For anyone who wants to attend but can’t for financial reasons, the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) is supporting both committers and non-committers with travel assistance this year. To apply you need to be involved in either ASF projects or open source projects in general. Visit the http://www.apache.org/travel/[TAC website^] for more information. The closing date for applications is 1 July 2022.
+
+If you are still not sure about attending, here’s what *Claude Warren*, a community member, had to say:
+_“Do it! There are so many things I could say about how things look like cliffs but end up being curbs, or how great it is to meet people who appreciate the effort you put in, or how the conversations with people after talks can give flight to the most amazing ideas. Attend ApacheCon for the thrills, the camaraderie, for the experience.”_
+
+=== Discussed
+
+In addition to the Jira queries (mentioned above) for newcomers, we have a https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=484&quickFilter=2455&quickFilter=2454&quickFilter=2160[number of tickets^] that are blocking the 4.1 release. Take a look at the list if you think you can help.
+
+=== Discussed
+
+The debate about https://lists.apache.org/thread/fh1ylkp7wwsr3b3sbnym9gl3fl9l70tt[code contributions and style guide^], started by *Benedict Elliott Smith* has continued and covered annotation usage.
+
+=== Discussed
+
+*Ekaterina Domitrova* opened a discussion on https://lists.apache.org/thread/lnm5ly4tzyzlf4zcmsg9okx6rgxmf0rr[the future of JMX and virtual tables^] as Cassandra has a new YAML format for duration, data storage, and data rate configuration parameters, and there are new JMX methods using the new format in 4.1 features such as the new Guardrails framework.
+
+== User Space
+
+=== Hornet
+
+[quote,'https://thestack.technology/cassandra-hornet-datastax/[Nate Mitchell^]']
+
+Hornet uses Cassandra to underpin its private messaging function and users’ activity feeds, storing and archiving activity in the open source database. The application’s core API, meanwhile, is powered by AWS EC2 – ‘we can run up to 150, 180 instances of EC2 easily during periods of high activity.'

+Our monthly roundup of key activities and knowledge to keep the community informed.
+
+== Release Notes
+
+=== Released
+
+In May, we hit our one-year branch and froze the code for the release of Apache Cassandra 4.1. If you would like to demo the new release for non-production use, a test build of https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/cassandra/4.1-alpha1/[Cassandra 4.1-alpha1^] was approved on 27 May.
+
+Please read the https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cassandra.git;a=blob_plain;f=NEWS.txt;hb=refs/tags/4.1-alpha1-tentative[release notes^] and let us know if you encounter any problems.
+
+Please note that APIs may change and not all tests in CI are fixed/stable during our alpha releases. For more information on our release lifecycle and quality requirements please read the https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/x/tQzjBw[wiki page^].
+
+The latest release of Apache Cassandra is https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/cassandra/4.0.4/apache-cassandra-4.0.4-bin.tar.gz[4.0.4^] (https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/4.0.4/apache-cassandra-4.0.4-bin.tar.gz.asc[pgp^], https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/4.0.4/apache-cassandra-4.0.4-bin.tar.gz.sha256[sha256^], and https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/4.0.4/apache-cassandra-4.0.4-bin.tar.gz.sha512[sha512^]), which was released on 14 May 2022.

+
+We are excited to announce the second annual Apache Cassandra World Party (CWP) on *Wednesday, July 20, 2022*. We will be following the fun and lightning-fast format from last year’s party. Speakers have five minutes and five slides that auto-advance every minute. You can read about the details here.
+
+You can submit your talks https://sessionize.com/apache-cassandra-4-1-world-party/[here^] until June 17 at 11.59 pm UTC. We will also be posting more details on the Cassandra blog in coming weeks.
+
+=== Announced
+
+*Patrick McFadin* has kickstarted a monthly Cassandra marketing meeting. As we get closer to the release of Cassandra 4.1, meetings are likely to become more frequent to organize such things as the *Cassandra World Party* (see below). You can catch up on what is being planned https://docs.google.com/document/d/11ANJcz1BuXcTPoVZNo4o00SMp6smVzQufvXsrqs0IlE/edit?usp=sharing[here^].
+
+=== Announced
+
+The CFP for the 2-day Cassandra track at https://www.apachecon.com/acna2022/[ApacheCon North America^] has closed, but for those comfortable with traveling, you can register for the event which will take place between October 3-6 at the Sheraton Hotel, New Orleans.
+
+For anyone who wants to attend but can’t for financial reasons, the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) is supporting both committers and non-committers with travel assistance this year. To apply you need to be involved in either ASF projects or open source projects in general. Visit the http://www.apache.org/travel/[TAC website^] for more information. The closing date for applications is 1 July 2022.
+
+If you are still not sure about attending, here’s what *Claude Warren*, a community member, had to say:
+_“Do it! There are so many things I could say about how things look like cliffs but end up being curbs, or how great it is to meet people who appreciate the effort you put in, or how the conversations with people after talks can give flight to the most amazing ideas. Attend ApacheCon for the thrills, the camaraderie, for the experience.”_
+
+=== Discussed
+
+In addition to the Jira queries (mentioned above) for newcomers, we have a https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=484&quickFilter=2455&quickFilter=2454&quickFilter=2160[number of tickets^] that are blocking the 4.1 release. Take a look at the list if you think you can help.
+
+=== Discussed
+
+The debate about https://lists.apache.org/thread/fh1ylkp7wwsr3b3sbnym9gl3fl9l70tt[code contributions and style guide^], started by *Benedict Elliott Smith* has continued and covered annotation usage.
+
+=== Discussed
+
+*Ekaterina Domitrova* opened a discussion on https://lists.apache.org/thread/lnm5ly4tzyzlf4zcmsg9okx6rgxmf0rr[the future of JMX and virtual tables^] as Cassandra has a new YAML format for duration, data storage, and data rate configuration parameters, and there are new JMX methods using the new format in 4.1 features such as the new Guardrails framework.
+
+== User Space
+
+=== Hornet
+
+[quote,'https://thestack.technology/cassandra-hornet-datastax/[Nate Mitchell^]']
+
+Hornet uses Cassandra to underpin its private messaging function and users’ activity feeds, storing and archiving activity in the open source database. The application’s core API, meanwhile, is powered by AWS EC2 – ‘we can run up to 150, 180 instances of EC2 easily during periods of high activity.'
