releases?...
If you mean an actual release (defined in [1] as "any publication
outside the group of people on the product dev list"), the PMC must
vote to approve it, and it must comply with the ASF licensing
requirements (LICENSE and NOTICE files, etc). And it should be
mirrored, dunno how this would work for Ruby packages? So some
bureaucracy would be involved I guess.
Release candidates are much more lightweight according to [1]. IIUC,
putting up a gem package as you mention fits that definition, so that
might be a good way of getting your stuff tested.
Yes, definitely this is a "release candidate". Thanks for the info.
I'll review the link you sent and update the codebase with any
missing pieces, and any other recommendations on this thread before
"releasing".
