I flushed 52 issues out which were clogging our pipeline.
25 open issues to go for a 5.6.0.Beta1; these more important ones are
flagged "fixVersion" = 5.6.
The ones I moved are now marked for 5.6.0.Beta2; they might eventually
end up being moved to 5.7 but we can review that later.
So please focus on the ones marked for "5.6" first.
This doesn't mean that the ones I've moved out are not important and
should not be looked at: some of them are annoying bugs, but I simply
don't consider them blockers for the first beta supporting
Elasticsearch as we had them in the past too.. if you happen to want
to fix one, we can of course change the fixVersion back.
Thanks,
Sanne
