Based on my quick review (see the other email) and experience from other incubating projects I estimate that more than just a few days are needed. > What is the list of items required to be official? The minimum requirements are described in the "What Must Every ASF Release Contain?" section [1] of the release FAQ [2]. To summarize, a release needs to a) contain source code, b) be cryptographically signed [3], and c) comply with the licensing policy. At the moment we have open issues with at least a) and c). The Incubator also has more verbose and less normative guide on release management [4].
