Greetings.  With the approval of a public vote on common-dev@, I have
branched Hadoop branch-1 to create branch-1.1.  From this, I will create a
release candidate RC-0 for Hadoop-1.1.0, hopefully to be available shortly
after this weekend.

There are over 80 patches in branch-1, over and above the contents of
hadoop-1.0.3.  So I anticipate that some stabilization will be needed,
before the RC can be approved as a 1.1.0 release.  Your participation in
assuring a stable RC is very important.  When it becomes available, please
download it and work with it to determine whether it is stable enough to
release, and report issues found.  My colleagues and I will do likewise, of
course, but no one company can adequately exercise a new release with this
many new contributions.

There are two outstanding issue that are not yet committed, but I know the
contributors hope to see in 1.1.0:
    MAPREDUCE-4049 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4049>
    HADOOP-4012 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4012>
Assuming there is an RC-1, and that these two patches can be committed
during stabilization of RC-0, I will plan to incorporate these additional
items in RC-1.

Best regards,
--Matt
Release Manager
