We were explicitly instructed *not* to publish a master version by ASF staff when given access to the apache/couchdb name space. I don't know what more I can say here without Infra threatening to take away the apache/couchdb namespace from us.
We were also told that the "official" namespace that Docker provides (just 'couchdb' which is being updated to the new apache/couchdb location) can only use official releases from upstream, see: https://github.com/docker-library/official-images/pull/1288#issuecomment-173365497 "...while bleeding edge betas/RCs/etc that have a unique git hash reference can be supported, building from master should be done in a non-official image." -Joan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dale Harvey" <d...@arandomurl.com> To: u...@couchdb.apache.org, "Joan Touzet" <woh...@apache.org> Cc: "CouchDB Developers" <dev@couchdb.apache.org> Sent: Wednesday, 20 September, 2017 3:56:08 AM Subject: Re: Docker images migrated to apache/couchdb Having a master version available does not seem to break those policies (advertising outside the development community seems purposefully vague), and if it did then those policies should be fixed. A master version of CouchDB available for testing with PouchDB would be hugely beneficial, I imagine for other projects that want to integrate with CouchDB would benefit too On 20 September 2017 at 08:15, Joan Touzet < woh...@apache.org > wrote: Hello everyone, The Docker images that used to live at klaemo/couchdb have now been semi-officially replaced by ones at apache/couchdb. Tags are present for 1.6.1, 1.6.1-couchperuser, 2.1.0, and latest (which is the same as 2.1.0). The 2.1.0 image can be used both as a single node, and in a cluster. ASF policy prevents us from publishing a "master" version, as notated here: http://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution.html#unreleased Sorry for the delay in getting these out the door. The next step is to deprecate the klaemo/couchdb image, and to have the "official" couchdb image replaced with a pointer to the apache/couchdb image. -Joan
