Changes / Additions

In the scope of this ticket:

• check that tests, getting started scripts, documentation and demos work with the new version. Many of the changes are UI-based, so screenshots should be checked for accuracy.
• have a look at the items below from the release notes and create new issues for things which merit further work
• as many changes are UI-based it may be worth showcasing some new UI features in our demos

2.0.1 is not released as of the time of this writing but the release vote is ongoing: https://lists.apache.org/thread/vjhnxw1yrd3wo356c0pgljv9nn7trmyv

Do we already want to do this or wait for a 2.0 patch release @lfrancke ?

[lfrancke]

Good question: @siegfriedweber @fhennig @soenkeliebau
Any opinions? Usually I'd prefer for us to not jump on a new major version immediately but if you think it's worth it I'm happy to...

[adwk67]

I think it makes sense doing a refinement on this, if only to list the main changes up to 2.0.0. We can always put it back in the "waiting for" column if we decide to wait for 2.x.

[lfrancke]

A new vote on 2.0.1 has been started: https://lists.apache.org/thread/7whg78bdc7pn1rxl64o0f3bhprrdf72k

[lfrancke]

The new vote has received another -1 which might fail the release.
I don't feel too confident about supporting Superset 2.0 right now.
I will remove it from this release and we can try again next release.

Ok for me

[sbernauer]

New vote started https://lists.apache.org/thread/jrl1cs4wnl22mtyz926tllr8k513gx9x

[lfrancke]

No, that is the result of the new vote and it failed again :)

[sbernauer]

Ah sry 🤦

[sbernauer]

They finally did it...

[maltesander]

one task left, not sure why it closed!

[soenkeliebau]

Needs input from @lfrancke on whether both versions should be released or just 2.1.0

[lfrancke]

I think only 2.1.0 is required.
Any other opinions?
