Hi Jed,

thanks for preparing! I checked and technically all SVN files, Checksums, Licenses and signatures look good.

Also the reproducibility is exactly reproducing - but I can only make this bit identical if I make a test release. Means for RC1 the binaries/tgz are OK but it contains URLs to staging. So this package can not be binary identical be published but needs to be re-generated for production. Naming rc1 is okay.

----------------------------

On this I assume the adjustments from PMC verification guide by Bugra are incorretc, with his (recent) changes in PR #61271 the check is successful but it is in my view checking the wrong version.

You can convince me of that I am wrong, but I assume the package must be re-generated. Even  though the content besides doc URLs looks good. And to be preceise, only the docs URLs are wrong. Rest looks good. (Full tests with deployment still pending)

Hello Apache Airflow Community,

This is a call for the vote to release Helm Chart version 1.19.0.

The release candidate is available at:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/helm-chart/1.19.0rc1/

airflow-chart-1.19.0-source.tar.gz - is the "main source release" that
comes with INSTALL instructions.
airflow-1.19.0.tgz - is the binary Helm Chart release.

Public keys are available at: https://www.apache.org/dist/airflow/KEYS

For convenience "index.yaml" has been uploaded (though excluded from
voting), so you can also run the below commands.

helm repo add apache-airflow-dev
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/airflow/helm-chart/1.19.0rc1/
helm repo update
helm install airflow apache-airflow-dev/airflow

airflow-1.19.0.tgz.prov - is also uploaded for verifying Chart Integrity,
though not strictly required for releasing the artifact based on ASF
Guidelines.

$ helm gpg verify airflow-1.19.0.tgz
gpg: Signature made Fri Jan 30 11:27:18 2026 MST
gpg:                using RSA key

gpg: Good signature from "Jed Cunningham <[email protected]>"

sha256:e844672374122f4a19a7909b936c91d68e14ed11b162fead760a8cae69bfaf87

The vote will be open for at least 72 hours (2026-02-02 18:52 UTC) or
until
the necessary number of votes is reached.



https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/to?iso=20260202T1852&p0=136&font=cursive
Please vote accordingly:

[ ] +1 approve
[ ] +0 no opinion
[ ] -1 disapprove with the reason

Only votes from PMC members are binding, but members of the community are
encouraged to test the release and vote with "(non-binding)".

Consider this my (binding) +1.

For license checks, the .rat-excludes files is included, so you can run
the
following to verify licenses (just update your path to rat):

tar -xvf airflow-chart-1.19.0-source.tar.gz
cd airflow-chart-1.19.0
java -jar apache-rat-0.13.jar chart -E .rat-excludes

Please note that the version number excludes the `rcX` string, so it's
now
simply 1.19.0. This will allow us to rename the artifact without
modifying
the artifact checksums when we actually release it.

The status of testing the Helm Chart by the community is kept here:
https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/61268

Thanks,
Jed
