Rust implementation can be compiled to WebAssembly and is released biweekly. The Javascript version compiled from Rust may not satisfy all Javascript users, but maybe there could be some collaboration to reduce duplicated efforts?

  Ahh, thank you for the clarification. There are no breaking changes in
this point release, just fixes.

@PMC, could you please vote on this point release.

Would anyone volunteer as the release manager with me to give me a better
understanding of the process?

Rust has its own repository and does frequent point releases:
https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/tree/master/dev/release

however, even point releases require 3 PMC binding +1 votes and API
breaking changes can only take place on major releases.

Many of the tests for releases can be automated, possibly relieving some
of the PMC burden in the current process.  Judgement on code quality and
software license is still required though[1]. Similarly, releases need
to be signed.

   I tested Node v14.18.1 and tests pass. I think we can go ahead and make a

release.


@Benson, could you help me update the script to work off of branches. I

don’t know what the expected process for release verification is. I’d be

happy to adopt another process.

Thanks for catching that.



Jest is used for running the tests and jest supports node 14.15. Could we

switch to node 14.15 instead of 14.0 for this test?

Hi,



Tested this on AlmaLinux 8. Following steps:



      export NVM_DIR="`pwd`/.nvm"

      mkdir -p $NVM_DIR

      curl -o-

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.35.3/install.sh | \

        PROFILE=/dev/null bash

      [ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"



      nvm install --lts

      npm install -g yarn

      git clone https://github.com/apache/arrow

      cd arrow

      git checkout release-6.0.2-js

      cd js

      yarn --frozen-lockfile

      yarn run-s clean:all lint build

      yarn test



Tests pass.



yarn 1.22.17

npm 8.1.0

node 16.13.0



Tests also pass on

node 17.0.0





Node 14 is supported until 2023, however if one tries to use Node 14,

one gets the error:



jest@27.0.6: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module.

Expected version "^10.13.0 || ^12.13.0 || ^14.15.0 || >=15.0.0". Got

"14.0.0"

error Found incompatible module.





The current release verification script could be update to support

testing directly from a branch if this will be the point release process

in future.

Hi,





I would like to propose a patch release for Arrow JS. The release is

forked

<https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/11741>



ARROW-14774: [JS] Correct package exports

[ ] +1 Release this as Apache Arrow JS 6.0.2



[ ] +0



[ ] -1 Do not release this as Apache Arrow JS 6.0.2 because...





Thank you,



Dominik
