+1 I've done lots of releases (mainly using Ant) and mostly get to at least RC3 before the vote succeeds. > You are quite close now, there was only one comment about the artifacts. Sorry, but that's not strictly true - I also commented that the API needs a review to avoid possible future compatibility issues. I stopped reviewing the actual release after discovering the artifactId blocker. == I don't know why, but we mostly seem to have stopped sending out mails before starting a release vote. In the past, a developer would send an email to say "I propose to RM Commons xyz in a few days" to give people a heads up. This gives others a chance to pre-check the code/outstanding JIRAs etc, and the release vote itself is more likely to succeed. > thanks for your efforts, > Luc > >> >> Matt >> >>> >>> I always make a mini-mess of RCs.
