Well, my first attempt at writing that out was close :)

Issac go-ahead and make the changes to RELEASE file and re-roll without the 
polished version.  I think we can stick with v1.34 for this one.


I'll dedicate some time tonight or tomorrow to test it.

Already rolled, and at a mirror near you, as libapreq-1.34.tar.gz

I'll call the vote in a separate email

Pretty much, yup.  The confusion reigns when we aren't sure if a user is
complaining about 1.34-dev, 1.34-RC1, 1.34-RC2 or 1.34-Gold.  So this gives
us a very simple binary question (did you grab from SVN or take a release
al la CPAN) to decide if the user is running what we expected.

And as folks have hinted, version no's are cheap :)

 Subject: [VOTE] Unify release SVN tag, SVN branch and dating policy for 1.x 
 and trunk
 
 After reviewing the RELEASE files for 1.x and 2.x, I'd like to propose
 that we clean them up a bit (though I don't forsee any more 1.3
 releases, we may as well get it in at the same time as 2.x)
 
 I won't summarize the current orders of operation (see [1] and [2]), but
 here's what I'd like to see happen:
 
 1) Create a release branch 1.x/2.x in /branches/
 2) In trunk, modify the CHANGES and STATUS files to reflect a new dev cycle
 3) From the branch, prep the release for CPAN (don't forget to #undef
 the APREQ_VERSION_IS_DEV macro definition).  Test.  Upload.  Vote.
 Repeat if needed.
 4) AFTER the release is approved by the PMC, modify the RELEASE and
 STATUS files on branch + commit.  Modify in trunk + commit.

The way it should work IMO is to do whatever needs doing on the branch,
including filling in the dates (a few days in advance) on the RELEASE
and STATUS files, and then generate the tarball + sig and put that 
pair up for vote.  If the vote doesn't pass by the dates you used, 
the vote fails and that version is an unreleased dud.

6) Upload (release)

Let me know what you think:

[ ] Leave everything alone
[ ] Change 1.x RELEASE file
[ ] Change 2.x RELEASE file

(if you agree to changing both, please +1 both of the bottom two options)
