With this vote, we are now at 3 +1 PMC votes - a minimum for releasing.
Everyone - please keep testing and submitting your experience. It'd be
nice if someone could double check the GPG signing and checksums as
well. If we need to stop the release, we will.
Our typical policy is to release on Tuesdays for widest publicity. As
Monday is a public holiday in Canada, I suggest we push things out one
day. That'd put us on the following schedule, since we must wait 24
hours for the Apache mirrors to catch up:
Tue Feb 18 - Push apache-couchdb-3.0.0.tar.gz* to dist.apache.org
- Push Mac/Win binaries wherever they are going
- Push binary packages to bintray.org
- Test and merge 3.0.0 Docker PR
- Push new Docker image to apache/couchdb
Wed Feb 19 - Update couchdb.apache.org website
- Announce widely (twitter, blog, announce@a.o, etc.)
- Open downstream Docker PR for top-level couchdb image
Any objections?

Dear community,
I would like to propose that we release Apache CouchDB 3.0.0.
Candidate release notes:
https://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/whatsnew/3.0.html
We encourage the whole community to download and test these release artefacts
so that any critical issues can be resolved before the release is made.
Everyone is free to vote on this release, so dig right in! (Only PMC members
have binding votes, but they depend on community feedback to gauge if an
official release is ready to be made.)
The release artefacts we are voting on are available here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/couchdb/source/3.0.0/rc.1
There, you will find a tarball, a GPG signature, and SHA256/SHA512 checksums.
Please follow the test procedure here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COUCHDB/Testing+a+Source+Release
Please remember that "RC1" is an annotation. If the vote passes, these
artefacts will be released as Apache CouchDB 3.0.0.
Please cast your votes now.
Thanks,
Joan "once in a lifetime" Touzet
