Re: [VOTE] Incubator PMC to approve 3.0-M1 release of ServiceMix
Hi Guillaume, If my interpretation of the incubator release policy is correct, we need to place an 'incubating disclaimer' in the README.txt and name the distributed files incubating-servicemix-3.0-M1* http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html#Releases * the release archive MUST contain the word "incubating" in the filename; and * the release archive MUST contain an Incubation disclaimer (as described in the previous section), clearly visible in the main documentation or README file. A number of folks have already given this a +1 as is. We should either follow the release policy or amend it. IMHO, the requirement to place the word 'incubating' in the distributed file name is too onerous.

Re: [VOTE] Incubator PMC to approve 3.0-M1 release of ServiceMix
The incubation disclaimer is in the README.txt file at the root of the distributions. The "incubator" is prepended to the maven groupId which leads to a incubator-servicemix directory name where all attributes are available. This have already been the case for several incubating projects so I assumed it was the way to do with maven projects...

-1 Bill Stoddard is correct in his understanding of http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html#Releases. The fact that other people have voted +1 without verifying that the release adheres to Incubator policy is a bit disturbing, but that's why we have multiple sets of eyes on these things. I really don't understand why it has been so hard for ActiveMQ and ServiceMix to follow Incubator policy, particularly after James acknowledged precisely what needs to be done, and said that the issues would be corrected for the next ActiveMQ candidate.

FWIW now that the ActiveMQ build is fixed it should never again fail these incubator release requirements - though it did take quite a few attempts to get there. This is the first attempt at a milestone release of ServiceMix so its hardly surprising that one little thing was missed. Right now there's a disclaimer in the README and the maven POM and artifacts clearly use 'incubator-servicemix'. The missing piece (which is my bad, I should have fixed it when I fixed ActiveMQ) is that the maven project which creates the assembly does not include 'incubator-' in the filenames of the generated zips/tarballs - though its clearly visible in the directory name in which those tarballs are placed together with the maven POMs. FWIW I use maven for pretty much all projects I work on and use; so mentally when I see a maven build I read the project name from the groupID/artifactID of where the distro is in the maven repo - e.g. looking at the URL Guillaume posted I read 'incubator-servicemix' version '3.0-M1'. I suspect many other folks do the same - which could be why noone noticed the need for another explicit 'incubator-' in there for good measure. I've patched the build so this issue should be resolved now (it was servicemix-assembly/project.xml). Guillaume do you want to cut another build of 3.0-M1? Then AFAIK we should have the ServiceMix build process complying totally with the current incubator release guidelines. -- James --- http://radio.weblogs.com/0112098/ - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [VOTE] Incubator PMC to approve 3.0-M1 release of ServiceMix
I am really confused by the reaction to this. I don't see any reason to be puzzled or upset. I don't want to make this a bigger issue than it is, but: 1. The project is incubating and this is the first time its done an Apache release. There are a lot of check boxes that need to be checked to make Apache happy. Overlooking a NOTICE file that almost no one looks at doesn't seem like that big of a jump to me. With an M1 release, I think everyone was a bit more worried whether the damn thing worked at all. As we move toward a .0 release things will certainly get more cleaned up. 2. Incubating release don't need to conform to Apache policy as far as I understand it. Only to whats outlined in the release section [1]. Thats why Roller can release with LGPL dependencies. So in this light, the NOTICE file shouldn't be a hold up, no? Only -incubator instead of -incubating can. And, at the risk of being hypocrytical here, can we keep commentary to a minimum? -1, +1, suggestions, and informing that requirements aren't met is great, but there doesn't seem to be a need to stir things up with how you feel a particular project is doing its job.

Only -incubator instead of > -incubating can. Using LGPL dependencies is about policy. This is about what is legal. Besides complying with policy, you need to comply with the law, which involves complying with the terms and conditions of a variety of licenses. As an example, ServiceMix redistributes jars under an apache license which have NOTICEs applying to them. Thus the appropriate attributions *must* then be kept around (so says the license), so not having notices and stuff in place means a license breach, which is not at all about policy. Its illegal. As another example, CDDL-licensed things explicitly prohibit getting rid of *any* legal notices (which is common sense anyway). Doing illegal stuff can get us and our users sued.

Nowhere does any policy ever say "you can do stuff which is not permitted by law or for which you have no license". To state the reverse in a policy would be rather, well, redundant. There is ample documentation out there on our websites (and more in the works) to help with complying with the law and various licenses. To give you an idea. I have volunteered to help with a less confusing contribution policy. You can find it at http://incubator.apache.org/harmony/contribution_policy.html I have also volunteered time and effort to help with a less confusing third party contribution policy, of which you can find a draft at http://people.apache.org/~cliffs/3party.html The result of these documents will be folded into the incubator policies as appropriate in due course (and I might very well be the person to take care of some of that), but we're not quite ready for any of that yet. Until that time, each and every project needs to figure it out on its own. I have previously written a whole bunch of documentation for different projects on how to do releases, eg, see some old info at http://wiki.apache.org/avalon/AvalonReleaseManagerHowto and I have also been helping out for several years now to get that kind of info on the central ASF website about this stuff, eg http://www.apache.org/dev/#releases which is referred to many, many times from the incubator website. The relevant section of that documentation (for this thread) is http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#license which, I would think, is already quite clear.

I feel like a broken record these days. If we update the incubation release process guide to include all the requirements for a release then you won't have to repeat yourself and other podlings will know whats required causing less frustration alround. Though its clearly a touchy subject so I went ahead and did it for you :). FWIW I just added a link to the release guide you provided in the release section (Incubation_Policy.html). Incidentally there are useful bits of documentation on performing releases in the documentation/wikis of various projects at Apache. I've hacked up a quick wiki page to collect them.. http://wiki.apache.org/general/ReleaseGuides and added the links you provided along with adding some of the release guides I could think off off the top of my head (e.g. ActiveMQ and Struts). If anyone is aware of any other useful information on release processes and requirements it'd be good to add to these 2 pages. -- James --- http://radio.weblogs.com/0112098/ - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bingo! Ken hit the nail on the head!!! A checklist would do wonders
for podlings and preparing releases. Even though I've been through the
Incubator before, a lot has changed since that time.
Having been around the ASF since the Geronimo incubation began (August
2003), it was never clear to me why these policies were in place and
now I know why - it's a legal issue. Until now that was never clear to
me (I certainly understand that there are legal issues and there are
many files required, but linking the two in my mind just didn't happen
- maybe I'm at fault for not drawing the correct relation between the
two).
Ken is absolutely correct in noting that developers are not of the
same mindset when cranking out a release as the folks who drafted the
Incubator release policies. The main issue at hand is that the release
requirements are spread all around in various documents which makes it
tough to make sure every aspect has been fulfilled. In addition to
these documents, I think a checklist would do wonders for smoothing
the way for future podling projects and I'm certainly willing to help
Ken flesh out just such a checklist.
Furthermore, looking at other projects that have recently graduated is
most definitely *not* a good way to find proper release examples as
some don't even have a LICENSE file, let alone a NOTICE or even the
word Incubator or Incubating in the release name. Developers always
look for code examples to follow and incubation is no different.
Pointing out a couple or three projects that have graduated, have met
100% of the requirements and actually are a good representation would
help immensely. Being able to poke around a project that has been
qualified by the Incubator PMC as having met all requirements would
short circuit a lot of the frustrations.
Let's try to work together to remedy this situation in the interest of
all parties involved and make it easier for future podlings.

IMO secondary documentation at the incubator level would be counterproductive if it encourages release managers to ignore the material on the foundation site. porting a good instruction to the foundation site list from jakarta, struts or ant has been considered before but most of the instructions concern language specific best practice rather than policy. there are a number of issues which are about understanding the issues rather than simply following a recipe. hence the FAQs rather than a list of instructions. what would be useful is a check list aimed at checkers of incubator releases. - robert

Cliff > has been working on lots of this kind of stuff > i've not created an ASF wide checklist since i believe that it would be risky: release managers really need to understand the issues rather than just tick boxes. IMO checklists work best at project level and contain a description of what each project expects and how their release process works. podlings really need to develop their own release policy and document it. creating an ASF guide aimed at new release managers might be a good idea, though. i had a think about this and i have come up with something that i do think would work: a index-style (with links into the ASF documentation) summary for the incubator project plus guides to best practice (which would include language specific material excluded from the ASF documentation). if there are no objections or ideas for improvement, i might start looking at some of this in the next week or two. - robert
