The Cassandra release process has had some improvements to better in line with the ASF guidelines: sha256 & sha512 checksums, staged artefacts in svnpubsub, dep and rpm repositories complete and signed in staging, and separate scripts and manual steps merged together.
The updated documentation for cutting, voting, and publishing a release is found here: https://cassandra.apache.org/doc/latest/development/release_process.html I am hoping to get as many Committers* and PMC members interested as possible for cutting a future release. Who is interested? How many names can I get :-) The more that are interested then the easier it is to take turns and be flexible depending on our own availability each time. I will help out everyone on their first run. Indeed most of my motivation in getting involved with the release process was to make it all as simple and as forgettable as possible, so the role of the role manager can change easily from release to release. *When a Committer cuts a release, a PMC member has to perform the very last post-vote publish step. regards, Mick --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@cassandra.apache.org
