Hi Chris,

I don't know why you include KEYS in your releases. Might have been copy/paste from other releases done by other projects (in the grand Apache Way of doing things).

I note that some other projects also include KEYS in releases, while others don't.

This might be worth a discussion on general@. My opinion is that KEYS should *not* be voted. They should just be put into the dist directory and updated as needed.

Ahhhhh, gotcha.

Sorry I misinterpreted. Question though: we include the KEYS file as part of our releases, so it is part of our release package, the bits that folks VOTE on, so doesn't that make it part of the release? IOW, if I change it, the .asc file and the .md5 file and the .sha1 file all change.

What I normally do is that when the release VOTE passes, I copy the KEYS file (specific to a version b/c it can change depending on the RM) to the /www/www.apache.org/dist/incubator/gora/ directory.

However, I do think it's a pain to re-roll the release just for the KEYS file. I almost just asked folks if they wouldn't mind me updating rc2 with the up-to-date information and just VOTE'ing on that thread. But, I went ahead and rolled an rc3 so here we are...

Cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,

What I meant is that the KEYS file ( 
http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/gora/KEYS
) should be updated and not bother re-rolling the release candidate,
since KEYS is not part of the release package. It's part of the
distribution infrastructure, not part of an individual release or
release candidate.

Hi Chris,

I thought that KEYS were not part of any release but part of the
Apache infrastructure. So you could vet any release against the KEYS
file.

Yeah you can now upload your key to id.apache.org. I'm not sure how
to access it to verify a GPG key though at that point.


So is KEYS part of the gora release 0.2 but not 0.1? Just curious.

There is a KEYS file in 0.1, however, it only has Henry's Saputra's
key, since he was the RM. Because I am rolling 0.1.1, I updated the
KEYS file to include my key too. I forgot to do it on rc #1, so I
rolled rc #2 real quick and included it (since modifying the KEYS
file modifies the .asc and .md5 and .sha1 files of the src tarball
since we include a KEYS file in it).

Thanks!

Cheers,
Chris
