Hi Team， I'm not sure if you are aware the official release and unreleased code in Apache Incubator. Please take some time read through the code and let me know what you think.

This also has come up in feedback received from the exit questionnaire. In the release policy [3] it clearly states: "Projects MUST direct outsiders towards official releases rather than raw source repositories, nightly builds, snapshots, release candidates, or any other similar packages.” This has been discussed many times but these two legal JIRAs [1][2] spell it out quite clearly. And while these tickets refer to docker the same applies to any distribution mechanism. In short “It is appropriate to distribute official releases through downstream channels, but inappropriate to distribute unreleased materials through them.” So if your projects is using docker, PiPY, GitHub releases, npm or any other ways of distribution please make sure that the wider community is only pointed at official release and the best way to do this is not to publish unreleased code on those platforms. Ask yourself is someone outside of the project likely to use this and if the answer is yes then reconsider how you are using that distribution channel and make sure it only contains official releases.
