I looked at the -sources tarball. Checksums and signature match, builds cleanly. A few minor nits:
- The LICENSE file contains some sed issues referring to Apache Hadoop, e.g.: For the org.apache.hadoop.org.apache.falcon.util.bloom.* classes: - The top level should also contain a DISCLAIMER with the following text: ---- Apache Falcon is an effort undergoing incubation at the Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator PMC. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF. For more information about the incubation status of the Falcon project you can go to the following page: http://incubator.apache.org/projects/falcon.html ---- - there are a couple patches in the top level of the source tarball, but I didn't see a mention in the README or Installation-Steps.txt files. Are these part of the release? Similarly, is the "backlog" file for downstream users? - the .gitignore file probably isn't very helpful in the release tarball I didn't find any artifacts distributed with the source tarball that require a NOTICE. RAT (release audit tool) came back clean. One of the cleanest first RCs I've seen in the incubator. -C On Mon, Jul 22, 2013 at 8:09 PM, Srikanth Sundarrajan <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Everyone, > Release candidate 1 is now available at > http://people.apache.org/~sriksun/falcon-release/0.3-rc1. > Changes included in this release: > https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%20%3D%20FALCON%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%20%220.3%22%20ORDER%20BY%20priority%20DESC > The release has been signed through key(D2498DC9): > http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=vindex&search=0x90814E84D2498DC9 The > source corresponding to the release is tagged at > https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=incubator-falcon.git;a=tag;h=refs/tags/v0.3-rc1 > checksum:MD5(falcon-0.3-incubating-bin.tar.gz)= > c0c9268cc934cda251daa0cc402efc4fSHA1(falcon-0.3-incubating-bin.tar.gz)= > 731d3884a63c25ffc0d9d839b22f7c06dba38645MD5(falcon-0.3-incubating-sources.tar.gz)= > bd011cab9b161ea5815437c060348484SHA1(falcon-0.3-incubating-sources.tar.gz)= > 4393e99434a4cf4e19df25c8b2385de15ec54903 Vote will close at 26/Jul/2013 10AM > IST.
