I'd also recommend keeping up the momentum and releasing 0.50. All the
issue resolved in the process will also unblock the 0.60 release.

Justin Mclean is chair of the IPMC and his reviews of releases are always very
thorough and fair. I am not at all surprised that he found issues. Still, I
know it can be demoralizing when an RC passes the project vote and fails in the
IPMC vote.
I suggest that you let the IPMC vote run for 3 days to see if other people
raise issues, then cancel the vote and tell the IPMC what will be your next
steps.
As for whether to proceed with 0.50-rc2 or move on to 0.60, I don’t have a
strong opinion on this. Either way, let’s just keep up the momentum to get a
release out. The next release will be easier, I promise.
Take Justin’s suggestion to add to issues to the ‘work in progress disclaimer’,
if possible. This is a relatively process added by the IPMC; I should have
suggested it but it slipped my mind.

Agreed if we first clean out the old samples and steps code as well as the
very old welcome page which is *still* included in the build.
Old stuff like that will continue to bite us.
I know I've asked for this a few times and I don't want to force anything
on anyone but at this point my fingers are itching so hard when hovering
over the delete button it's starting to annoy me ;-)

Hi All,
Our 0.50 Release Candidate 2 still contains a couple of issues making it
hard to pass the vote.
see following mail:
https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r261e1353cd17bafe2eef4108b45677f31419ab5447d8d3d770bdead5%40%3Cgeneral.incubator.apache.org%3E
Our Master branch is already 130 commits ahead of our release branch.
Because the issues listed involve changing and cleaning up quite a lot of
our files my personal suggestion would be to add these changes to our 0.60
release and skip the 0.50 release (move all closed tickets to 0.60 for the
changelist).
We need to do a sweep of all our files and remove everything that is
currently not being used.
Cleanup our RAT excludes to the bare minimum and fix our headers.
What is your opinion on this?
Cheers,
Hans
