Hello everyone!
Last year was a bit slow for the open-source community around Hue, but we plan to change that in 2023. There will be more frequent releases, an improved issue-handling process, and a larger initiative to engage more people outside Cloudera. We want the Hue community to be vibrant, active, and inclusive. We will try to lower the threshold for those who wish to engage by simplifying, encouraging, and rewarding contributions in all forms.
We start these improvements by establishing a process for handling incoming issues for our Github repository. Although Hue is open source and used in the Hadoop services of all the major cloud providers, it is still mainly developed and maintained by the Hue core team at Cloudera. Upstream code changes and releases for the open source community coexist with more frequent downstream releases like Cloudera Data Platform (CDP), and we always try to balance these two sides of Hue. For handling incoming issues like bug reports, requests for enhancements, or questions, our goal is to increase the amount that gets resolved with the help of external committers and experts. But we also don't want issues to go stale in a lack of community engagement. Therefore, we have put in place a process to make sure that:
Any feedback or question? Feel free to comment here or on the Forum or on the Github discussions
Stay tuned for more updates
