Dave, you can add my +1.
Signatures checked out. I did a default from-scratch installation of
RC7 on Tomcat 7.0.11, Java 6.0.25, MySQL Ver 5.1.41, MySQL JDBC
(Connector/J) 5.1.13, Ubuntu 10.04. The installation went smoothly, but
I did notice the following exception in the roller.log
ERROR 2011-05-06 07:47:07,550 JPAMediaFileManagerImpl:upgradeFileStorage
- ERROR upgrading
java.io.FileNotFoundException:

I'm expecting this was just caught and ignored in the from-scratch
installation case? I tried a post with a simple image to exercise the
media file upload, and it seemed to go just fine.

I did cursory testing on RC6 and encountered no issues. I should be
able to test a basic installation of RC7 this week. I'm no longer
running a personal blog site, so I feel less confident that I would
personally have encountered issues users might face. I would be more
comfortable waiting a week or two for users to try to find additional
issues in RC7 and release approximately 5/15, barring anything
critical found.

I believe that Roller 5 is ready for release. We've gone through 6
release candidates, fixed many bugs along the way and Roller 5 is now
up and running at at least three sites including blogs.apache.org,
raibledesigns.com and rollerweblogger.org.
RC7 release files are here:
http://people.apache.org/~snoopdave/apache-roller-5.0/
Two minor changes have been made since RC6 (http://bit.ly/roller5rc6):
1) autoReconnect argument added to example MySQL URLs in Install
Guide
2) Added column for template action on Edit Templates page
(Templates.jsp)
Please vote +1 to release and -1 if you have specific reasons why the
release should not happen.
Thanks,
Dave
