+1 (to the release, I see no reason to force this to be EOL; leaving the
branch open has zero cost, and if a serious enough patch comes up, we'll
likely be happy we have the option to fix it).

Not sure we need another 2.1 release, this one included, but sure, +1

So long as the branch itself stays kinda open and most critical issues can have at least fixes for them committed, the interested parties can then keep building the artefacts manually.

Once 4.0 is out we can freeze the branch for good as well.

+1  for this release of 2.1.21


Comments:
 - we don't really need the checksums on gpg signature files. (Previously releases are also doing this.) I believe they can just be manually deleted from the staging nexus repository.
 - is there a reason we don't send out a pre-vote announcement that the artefacts are cut and can be tested? A number of apache projects do this and my impression is it provides a little patience in ensuring artefacts get tested before everyone rushes in to vote. We're not exactly offering anyone (users included) who is willing to test an artefact any time to do so.
 - we're not seeing/testing (or voting on) the sha256/512 checksums, as they're not uploaded until final release, as described in CASSANDRA-14970. 

regards,
Mick

I count 7 binding +1's, 1 non-binding +1 vote, and no others, so this
vote passes. I'll publish the artifacts as soon as I can.

Thanks for the discussion on support life of the 2.1 branch. I will not
be making any changes to the notes on the download page.

Kind regards,
Michael

Hi Michael,

What you and Jon said makes sense.

You have addressed a follow up concern I had about making sure the site was
updated if we go ahead with making 2.1 EOL. I'm happy to help with site
changes if needed.

Cheers,
Anthony

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 2.1.21

Posted by Stefan Podkowinski <sp...@apache.org>.
We currently intent to support 2.1 with critical fixes only, which 
leaves some room for interpretation. As usually, people have different 
views, in this case on what exactly a critical fix is. If there are some 
patches that are potential candidates for 2.1, but haven’t been 
committed, then we should revisit them and discuss back-porting. But EOL 
dates are not something that should be changed ad-hoc. If we do that, we 
might as well completely stop communicating support periods at all, 
since we may change our minds any time anyways, and I don’t think that’s 
acceptable.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 2.1.21

Posted by Michael Shuler <mi...@pbandjelly.org>.
My first couple sentences in the vote email were intended as a
statement, based on a lack of concerns voiced on EOL of 2.1.

I made a request for comment on EOL of 2.1 series a month ago, in
"Subject: EOL 2.1 series?":
https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/87ee2e3d13ea96744545ed8612496a93f8235747c4f60d0084b37bae@%3Cdev.cassandra.apache.org%3E

Yes, I'm aware our download page states we support 2.1 until 4.0, but we
do not really do so.

The reality is that developers have been actively ignoring the branch,
even when suggested to commit to the 2.1 branch. I can go dig up IRC
logs and commits, but I really don't feel like it adds any value to the
conversation. As Jonathan Haddad says, let's just be honest with users
about what has already been happening independently.

To continue stating we actively support 2.1 until 4.0 and actually
follow through, the project should audit fixed bugs in 2.2+ and see if
they still exist in 2.1, unfixed. I imagine there are a few. I know for
sure of one that was not committed. Alternatively, we sunset the branch,
make that change on the download page, and move on. I don't think it's
right to continue telling users we are doing something, if we aren't and
haven't been.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 2.1.21

+1 non-binding, for the release of 2.1.21

Regarding EOL of 2.1.x, did we announce in the past that 2.1.21 would be
the final release?

According to the download <http://cassandra.apache.org/download/> page 2.1
is meant to be supported with critical fixes only until 4.0 is released. I
suspect that people may be relying on this, as I have seen a number 2.1.x
clusters still in production use.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 2.1.21

I think having the discussion around EOL is pretty important, in order to
set the right expectations for the community.

Looking at the commits for 2.1, there's hardly any activity going on,
meaning it's effectively been EOL'ed for a long time now.  I think it's
better that we be honest with folks about it.

+1 on the release of 2.1.21 (let's focus on that in the spirit of
these other votes we have up right now).

I don't feel the need to be absolutist about something being EOL.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 2.1.21

What are we voting on here? Releasing the 2.1.21 candidate, or that 2.1 
would become EOL? Please let's have separate votes on that, if you want 
to propose putting 2.1 EOL (which I'm strongly -1).
