Re: [DISCUSS] 0.8.2-beta2 release

[Jun Rao <ju...@confluent.io>]

Thanks for everyone's help, we have resolved all known blockers for 0.8.2
(except for fixing the docs, which can be done in parallel with voting). I
will be doing some basic testing on the 0.8.2 branch. If that looks good, I
will cut an RC for 0.8.2 and start the voting process today.

Thanks,

Jun
