While 0.6-incubating was mainly about getting the release infra / legal stuff sorted out, I think it would be nice to have a "feature" release soon. The following new features would make a great 0.7-incubating release: - *Flink Streaming* "Beta Preview". I would suggest to ship the streaming, but clearly mark it as a preview in the documentation. -* Java API Pojo improvements*: Code generation, key selection using a string-expression: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1032 - *Reworked Scala API*. Bring the Scala API in sync with the latest developments in the Java API: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-641 -* Akka-based RPC service*: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1019 - *Kryo-based serialization*. This feature has been requested by many users. Mostly because they wanted to use Collections inside POJOs: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-610 Opinions? --001a1134b0047610ae05019fa69e--
