The release candidate #2 for the version 2.0.0 has been built. I believe this is a pretty good candidate for release -- we have (basically) cleared the entire list of blocking changes [8]!
I'd like to ask everyone to give this candidate a try -- this is the last opportunity we have to fix any critical issues if the final release is going to be available in time for ApacheCon next week. This would be a very valuable contribution to the project -- thanks so much! Also, see separate thread on acceptance criteria [7]. The complete staging area is available for review, which includes: * JIRA release notes [1], * the official Apache source release to be deployed to dist.apache.org [2], which is signed with the key with fingerprint 845E6689 [3], * all artifacts to be deployed to the Maven Central Repository [4], * source code tag "v2.0.0-RC2" [5], * website pull request listing the release and publishing the API reference manual [6], * Python artifacts are deployed along with the source release to the dist.apache.org [2].
