Updating the site, uploading the distributions all seem quite important components :) The links on that page don't work, also you should probably be making them release-candidiates rather than the real thing, if someone finds a problem with the release, you may end up with an incorrect version of 0.3 flying out there. Take a look at the Lang release. I made a couple of RCs, and now Steven has made a bunch. Each time they were uploaded to people.apache.org (hard without SSH) and the community asked to check them to see how they looked. Once they're considered good, lang will do a release. I'd suggest: a) Remove the links from the researchkitchen page for the moment. b) Hold for a few days until you get SSH back. c) Release them to your people.apache.org/~rwinston as an rc1 version (actually change the version in project.xml before building). d) Ask for opinions on the commons-dev list on the quality of the rc1. Also, I don't see a [RESULT] email for the original vote to release Discovery, someone should tally the votes up and send that to commons-dev (and Cc to [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

Re: [discovery] 0.3 release
Hi Simon, I was meaning to get around to this sooner. Yes indeed, I've been pressed for time over the last few weeks and haven't had a chance to cut a release. I will certainly get back to it within the next couple of days. I will need some help with the final stages of the release process, as I have zero SSH/FTP access at the moment, only HTTP(S). So I will need an existing committer to deploy the distributables onto the servers and do a `svn up` on the Jakarta site when they are deployed.

Re: [discovery] 0.3 release
Hi Simon, Not at all, I appreciate your help. It all sounds good to me. I'm currently waiting for a final confirmation from Fernando as to whether 0.3 fulfills his needs, then we can tag and release. The vote has been done already. Cheers Rory [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Rory, As I said in an earlier email, I hope you don't mind me getting involved in preparing for the Discovery release. No-one gave a -1...but I can back out anything that you disagree with. * I've checked the website (maven site:generate) and it all looks good. * The release notes are complete, and there don't seem to be any controversial changes since 0.2; all the patches seem reasonably obvious. * The unit tests all pass. * project.properties has been updated so that no matter what JDK the code is built with, a 1.1-compatible jar should result. Note, however, that this doesn't check whether code uses libs not available in that JDK distribution. * there are quite a few errors reported when generating the javadoc, but I presume this is no worse than the 0.2 release, so personally I'm ok with releasing this as-is. As far as I can see, it's now just a matter of creating a RC1 tag, posting the jar and website somewhere, and calling a vote. Of course I've never done a release before, so take that with a few grains of salt :-) Cheers, Simon - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ Sign up for eircom broadband now and get a free two month trial.* Phone 1850 73 00 73 or visit http://home.eircom.net/broadbandoffer - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Good news. From Guillaume: commons-discovery 0.3 is OK for me. I had used it for my nightly test, and all is OK Cheers, Fernando Rory Winston wrote: Hi Simon, Not at all, I appreciate your help.
