Per the Apache release rules, only artifacts which have been voted on can be released.
Thus, as I missed the main release vote, I cannot tag onto the end. The artifacts I want to release are: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecassandra-114/ Notes: * The tar.gz files are different from the main as the -src.tar.gz includes my patch and the -bin.tar.gz has different timestamps on the javadocs (previously I had just been reusing eric's tar.gz's and hacking the patch to no overwrite them... but I think it is better to have the actual source of what is used to generate all the artifacts that make up this staging repo) * I have given the CQL driver jar the same version number as everything else, because it is only going to work with the 0.8.0-beta1 jars anyway. Please vote (see http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html#ReleaseVotes) +1: Go ahead and release it 0: I have some issues with the release -1: I have something I think merits re-spinning this release Vote will be open for 72 hours unless the PMC says we can finish quicker and we have met the 3 or more binding +1's minimum -Stephen P.S. I do not have a binding vote at Cassandra, but here is my +1 anyway
