NG roadmap & non-NG issues
Hi,
How do various issues not related to NG and alpha 1 & 2 get handled now that there is a plan for alpha 1 & 2 (sorry if I didn't pay attention to developer level discussions around this, I'm just a user ;))?
Concretely, this one is of particular interest to us at Sematext, and there is a simple patch attached:

Thanks,
Otis

Jon.
As a current user, right now I have more interests in a bug fixing 0.9.5
release instead of NG. NG is definitely promising but we need time to
evaluate.
And yeah, I think it's time to work out a plan for 0.9.5 (current
trunk). We can start from collecting important bugs, and put them to
0.9.5 jira queue.
Thanks,
Mingjie

Re: NG roadmap & non-NG issues

Otis,
It is probably apparent that my focus has changed from the day-to-day Flume
focus used to have. I've been tasked to handle certain problems recently
and these are things that I have to take care of first. The same is true
for Eric and several of the others who were involved in the past.
I know that there are several outstanding patches (some very large) and on
the current trunk and 0.9.5 branch. Alex and yours isn't the only one.
I am fighting for time to try to burn down the patches queue. I'll get
some, but it will be limited. I'm going start another thread mail proposing
a roadmap for the sustaining branch in the next couple days.
At the end of the day, the Apache way is about building a self-sustaining
community of *users* and *developers*. I want to do right for the Flume
community and the Apache community. It is unfortunate and unhealthy that
currently things are blocked by a handful of people (me). Building a
self-sustaining community of developers is something that has been new to me
and something I've been trying to figure out how to do effectively. Any
advice there would be great too!
Jon.

Otis:
I believe Jon is planning on putting some effort behind a 0.9.5 release. If
he doesn't respond here I'll ping him when I see him in the office and let
him know this is of interest for such a release.
Thanks!
