Note:
1) This is a source only release with no binaries, with instructions on how
to build/test the application.
2) Fineract uses hibernate, *only for integration tests*. No hibernate
source or binaries are included as part of the release. Fineract
persistence API(s) are JPA complaint. So hibernate doesn't become direct
dependency.

The vote will be open for at least 72 hours or until necessary number of
votes are reached.

[ ] +1  approve
[ ] +0  no opinion
[ ] -1  disapprove (and reason why)

Here is my +1 (non binding)

Thanks,
Nazeer

DISCLAIMER

Apache Trafodion is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software
Foundation (ASF), sponsored by Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of
all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the
infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized
in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation
status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of
the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by
the ASF.
