Great to see this release effort started! FYI, a standard podling release process is roughly: - build an artifact, a signed tarball of sources - vote for it on the podling's dev list - if vote gets 3 +1 votes and no -1 votes from incubator PMC - then send an ACK request to general@ & wait 72 hours - else call a vote on general@, seeking more PMC votes
So the vote on general@ can often be avoided if you can get your mentors to vote on the podling's dev list. And binding votes can only be cast for a concrete artifact, not a subversion tag.

Hi *, as already discussed a few weeks ago: I want to start a Etch PPMC vote (running until Tuesday, 28.9, 16:00 CET) regarding the contents of Release 1.1. Here is the release tag: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/etch/releases/release-1.1.0-incubating/ We have prepared the release tag with the contents of trunk as of today (Rev. 1000863). Here is the list of things that have been done for this release: https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&pid=12310835&fixfor=12313457 You can build everything using ant (including the c binding using cmakeant), provided you prepare the external dependencies correct. There is documentation on that on the website http://incubator.apache.org/etch/building-trunk.html and in the BUILD.txt/README.txt files in the release. I did not prepare zips/sums/sigs for this release yet. You can download built versions (zips, setup exe) from the build server. This vote is only meant to determine the contents of the release. If it passes, I will create binaries/sums/sigs and start a Incubator PMC vote on the release. Please vote: [ ] +1 : release 1.1 with the described contents [ ] 0 : I don't care [ ] -1 : don't publish 1.1, because... +1 from my side. Looking forward to your votes, Regards, Holger
