I feel like a broken record these days.
If we update the incubation release process guide to include all the requirements for a release then you won't have to repeat yourself and other podlings will know whats required causing less frustration alround. Though its clearly a touchy subject so I went ahead and did it for you :). FWIW I just added a link to the release guide you provided in the release section (Incubation_Policy.html). Incidentally there are useful bits of documentation on performing releases in the documentation/wikis of various projects at Apache. I've hacked up a quick wiki page to collect them.. http://wiki.apache.org/general/ReleaseGuides and added the links you provided along with adding some of the release guides I could think off off the top of my head (e.g. ActiveMQ and Struts). If anyone is aware of any other useful information on release processes and requirements it'd be good to add to these 2 pages. -- James ------- http://radio.weblogs.com/0112098/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
