That seems a good option going forward. I would also say that working with other OS projects is a good way to attract committers. > My conclusion is, this particular issue should not block the current > release and the future potential releases. No but the release has other things I would consider blockers and currently doesn’t comply with ASF release policy. Thanks, Justin
