The release of core/ARQ etc. hasn't lead to any immediate disasters (but
there is still time!) so we can move on to TDB.
As far as I'm concerned, the code in the current snapshot and in SVN is
release candidate code (JENA-102 is fixed) and if people don't test it
(I've pinged jena-users@), then they risk it taking longer to get a
released version with fixes.
I need to write the transaction API documentation and there is something
odd in the prefix handling but as far as I can see, it's been odd for
some time, maybe all time; it needs reworking, not fixing so shouldn't
block a release.

PS Fuseki snapshot is using TDB transactions now.
I'm going to start the release process for TDB and Fuseki. I'll call
the vote as soon as possible.
Thank you Andy.
Do you have a plan for LARQ?
No plan whatsoever. I am at the limit of the number of things I can
manage. I was hoping you would deal with LARQ.
It's just a small extension for ARQ, therefore it does not need a full
.zip distribution. Or, that is necessary anyway?
ARQ does not have a distribution zip.
The only zip currently is apache-jena. Fuseki adds one (except it's
broken and needs fixing :-()
See
http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/jena/
for what we have released as well as maven release repository.
Probably, just the
-source-release.zip is necessary as per jena-iri, for example.
Do you agree?
The source-release is absolutely required. It *is* the release.
Everything else is additional in Apache process.
In relation to Fuseki, JENA-63 is still open/pending:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-63
But, if Fuseki is released first... LARQ cannot be included in it
and JENA-63 can only be closed with the next Fuseki release.
Do you want the release of Fuseki held up?
LARQ does not work SPARQL Update or with SPARQL Graph Store protocol.
We see on jena-users@ that people are using Fuseki via the update protocols.
Could LARQ be released separately as a bolt-on to Fuseki, with
instructions on how to build and maintain the index? I presume you want
to say its for read-only publishing at the moment.
I'll hold things up for a day while we discuss this.
