Requesting a point of vote clarification: Caveat: I am relatively new to the Apache HAWQ incubating project and my level of experience with general Apache processes (incubating or otherwise) is limited. Thus, my point of clarification and follow up question may be misguided. I apologize if this is the case.
The "[VOTE] MADlib v1.11-rc1" email indicates: "We're voting upon the source (tag): rc/1.11-rc1". I have been wondering when the initial binary release would be coming up for vote. Especially, in light of the use of Apache Infrastructure for build processes note. As I was reviewing the source tarball in on the Apache dist server ( https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/madlib/1.11-incubating-rc1/), I noticed along with the source tarballs (and supporting pgp signature and hashes) there are also what looks like binary files (and supporting pgp signature and hashes). Previous votes only included source tarballs on the dist server. So the point of clarification I'm seeking, are the binaries also up for vote? Additionally, the Apache HAWQ incubating project is undergoing our first release that is including convenience binaries. This initial vote is explicitly calling out the source and convenience binaries being voted on. I haven't seen a reference to binaries being part of any previous Apache MADlib vote process. I happened to look at the previous 1.10.0 release directory on the Apache dist server ( https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/madlib/1.10.0-incubating/) and was surprised to find binary files as well (this also applies to 1.9 & 1.9.1). Shouldn't the binary files have been voted on by the community before being added to the release area on the dist server? -=e -- *Ed Espino* On Tue, May 2, 2017 at 6:55 AM, Rashmi Raghu <rra...@pivotal.io> wrote: > Hello MADlib community, > > We have created a MADlib 1.11 RC-1, with the artifacts below up for a vote. > > This will be the 5th release for Apache MADlib (incubating). > > The main goals of this release are: > * new module (PageRank for graph analytics with grouping support included) > * improvements to existing modules (add grouping support to Single Source > Shortest Path, reduce memory footprint of DT and RF, include NULL features > in training DT, add support for array and svec output for Pivot module, > utility to unnest 2-D arrays into rows of 1-D arrays) > * platform updates (GPDB 5) > * updates for Apache Top Level Project readiness and build process on > Apache infrastructure > * bug fixes > * doc improvements > > For more information including release notes, please see: > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MADLIB/MADlib+1.11 > > *** Please download, review and vote by Thu May 04, 2017 @ 6pm PDT *** > > We're voting upon the source (tag): rc/1.11-rc1 > https://github.com/apache/incubator-madlib/tree/rc/1.11-rc1 > > Source Files: > https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/madlib/1. > 11-incubating-rc1/ > > Commit to be voted upon: > https://github.com/apache/incubator-madlib/commit/ > 0ff829a7060d08f284e8468ebf35c31b6e231d58 > > KEYS file containing PGP Keys we use to sign the release: > https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/madlib/KEYS > > To help in tallying the vote, PMC members please be sure to indicate > "(binding)" with the vote. > > [ ] +1 approve > [ ] +0 no opinion > [ ] -1 disapprove (and reason why) > > > Regards, > Rashmi Raghu > > -- > Rashmi Raghu, Ph.D. > Pivotal Data Science >
