As I understand it, test builds are not releases, but once it passes a vote it is a sanctioned release of alpha, beta, or GA quality.
True. The rule is that "releases" are approved by the PMC.
From http://apache.org/dev/release.html
* Releases all have some measure of official approval. What this means depends on the particular kind of release. ** Stable Releases are releases whose quality has been approved by the development community and by the ASF project. ** Unstable Releases are releases whose quality has not been demonstrated sufficiently to the development community to merit the title of stable release. There are many different kinds of unstable releases and the same names may mean different things for different projects. These include release candidates, betas, alphas and milestones. Our own charter also states that a release can be classified "alpha", "beta", or "general available" and reclassified as warranted. So, once 1.3.5 passes the GA muster, then we would archive the release documentation for future reference. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
