-1 There's no source archive. ASF primarily releases source; binary archives are optional (but almost always provided). Source archives are required. -0 The binary archive is huge; this is mainly because it contains multiple copies of many jars. It would be better for users if there was a single copy of each jar, and an installation script to copy them after unpacking. > SVN revision > https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/kafka/branches/0.7@1199132 The normal practice is to use an SVN tag for the release vote, for example: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/kafka/tags/0.7.0-incubating-RC1 If the vote succeeds, rename/copy it to https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/kafka/tags/0.7.0-incubating If the vote fails, create a new tag: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/kafka/tags/0.7.0-incubating-RC2 -1: There is no DISCLAIMER The NOTICE file does not follow standards. The first 5 lines should look like the lines in === below: === Apache Kafka Copyright ?-2011 The Apache Software Foundation. This product includes software developed at The Apache Software Foundation (http://www.apache.org/). === The rest of the NOTICE file should be for *required* notices only; it is not required to list other Apache projects. The NOTICE file also contains a license, that should be in LICENSE. No mention of sbt, which is in SVN - as that is also included in the binary release, should that be mentioned in the NOTICE file? > PGP release keys > http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/kafka/KEYS > > This vote is open until Thursday, Nov 17th 12 pm > > Thanks, > Neha > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
