[DISCUSS / VOTE] Signal name to "kill" streaming jobs

[Matthias J. Sax]

Hi,

I am working on https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2111

Stephan and I had a discussion about the name of the signal. See:
https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/750

Because we cannot agree on either "terminate" or "stop" we would
appreciate some feedback about it. If anybody has an third alternative
for the name, please go ahead an share it.

Hi,

thanks for starting this thread!

I prefer "stop" over "terminate" because it sounds more graceful. A
temporary stop could be called "pause".

Cheers, Fabian

Hi Matthias,

+1 for stop, but it's only a name :) The rest of your changes deserve much
more attention. Because I have also worked on the ExecutionGraph and also
fixed a bug there, I agree with Stephan that we shouldn't change the logic
of the state machine. It will lead to very subtle hard to spot bugs.

+1 for stop, because terminate sounds very harsh
