As RC3 has now been out for a week without call for blocking changes to be made, it seems like it is time for a vote.
If you haven't already got it, RC3 can now be found for download at: http://people.apache.org/~robbie/qpid/0.8/RC3/ It was produced from r1037942 of the 0.8-release-candidates branch. The output from running RAT across the 'full release' archive can be found at the following URL: http://people.apache.org/~robbie/qpid/0.8/0.8rc3_rat_output.txt The changes since RC2 were: - Updates to various RELEASE_NOTES files - Updates to/addition of various README files - Remove a few redundant or out of date scripts/README files from Java tree - Update to avoid error in the cpp hello_xml example - Make the ruby hello example executable - QPID-2914: python address parser doesn't recognize None - QPID-2947: update slf4j to allow using the Java client package out-of-the-box - QPID-2948: Generated API docs have extraneous macro names in method signatures - QPID-2950: stop incorrectly logging an expected exception during DerbyMessageStore closure The rules for release voting are summarised as follows: based on majority approval but officially only that requires three +1 votes be cast in order to release, and it is not possible to veto a release. The process is covered at: http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html#ReleaseVotes This vote will close at 3pm GMT on Saturday 4th December 2010 (i.e. 72.5 hrs from now), after which I will tally the votes. Please indicate your response by replying to this email either with a '+1, 0, -1' type answer, or by checking a box in the below options: [ ] Yes, release RC3 as Qpid 0.8 [ ] No, I have an issue which I'll discuss in a new thread.
