Hi folks, I am in the process of releasing a Helm Chart from Apache Airflow (https://github.com/apache/airflow/tree/master/chart).
I have some questions around that as listed in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-573: 1) Is Helm Chart considered an official artifact as described in https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#artifacts? Or is it considered "convenience packages/binaries" 2) Do we need to go through a three 3 days voting period for releasing a new version of Helm Chart? 3) If Yes to (1) and (2), does it mean the Helm Chart should reside in the official download repository which is https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/airflow/ for us (Airflow PMC Members). Some of the other Apache Projects (Tika, Pulsar, Superset to name a few) have uploaded to either Github or Apache's Jfrog Artifact repository. Example: Apache Tika: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TIKA/Release+Process+for+tika-helm | Apache Superset: https://apache.github.io/superset/index.yaml / https://github.com/apache/superset/releases/download/superset-helm-chart-0.1.2/superset-0.1.2.tgz 4) If Yes to (3) -- Helm strips comments in `Chart.yaml` file when creating a Helm Package: `helm package DIRECTORY` - which means Apache License at top of the file is stripped off which will fails License check during VOTING? Any suggestions? 5) If Yes to (3) -- If we have Chart dependencies (airflow has a dependency on Postgres Chart) -- then it will bring the Helm Chart from Postgres which won't have License as Headers in their files. But when you run `helm package CHART_DIRECTORY` it bundles Chart + charts listed in dependencies, which makes it fail the LICENSE check again. Is the solution for it -- to just tar the source code and vote and that instead of tar generated by `helm package CHART_DIRECTORY` from source code? My goal here is to get an agreement on the guideline which will help not only us at Airflow but all other ASF projects -- happy to help writing and adding (PR'ing) to ASF Release policies too. Any comments/suggestions here or on the LEGAL issue I created will be very helpful.
