Bookkeeper 4.8 plans

[Enrico Olivelli <eo...@gmail.com>]

Hi,
We should cut branch-4.8 soon.
I volunteer as release manager.

Currently I did not start the process because last week we decided to
enhance the Bookie with the ability to handle future changes to disk layout
in 4.9, for example the ones needed to support persistent ExplicitLAC.

If I understand correctly Sijie is going to work in this area soon.
Sijie and Matteo were thinking about switching metadata to binary format as
well, in order to handle future changes to the format.

So we are deferring a bit the release.
I think there will be not space for big changes apart from the one
described before.

Enrico

Done. Have sent most of the PRs that I think needed for 4.8.

I just checked my local branches. I have a few changes regarding table
service might be needed for 4.8.0, which I would like to include them as
part of 4.8.0

Thank you Enrico.

Yes. We will add these two tasks to our engineering work this week for "the
disk layout versioning" and "metadata binary format".
We would like to include these as part of 4.8.0 release.
