I understand the goal of doing reproducible builds was primarily so we could do [Automated Release Signing](https://infra.apache.org/release-signing.html#automated-release-signing) (i.e., sign release on GHA). Therefore I think (at at minimum) we only really need to do one test (Proposed approach 2) since presumably everyone verifying the release will be doing a reproducibility check (stipulation 3 on https://infra.apache.org/release-signing.html#automated-release-signing). However, testing reproducibility in more environments on CI before putting out a release for a vote would help us avoid failing release votes. Can you clarify what "Check reproducible source archive on PMC members' machine" is here? Is that a manually step the release manager takes or were you referring to verifying releases during a vote? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
