I think the 72 hours is a minimum not an exact amount of time, the vote can keep running until you've got the necessary number of binding +1s. Its also not great that a large part of this will be over a weekend so you may end up needing to wait a bit longer.
I'm far from being a C++ expert so so far I'm struggling to get this running. I need to stop for now but I will be back on it over the weekend, it would be great if some of you C++ guys could be around on the mailing list and IRC to answer any questions about C++ setup I may have.

I have posted a candidate for the first C++ release here: http://people.apache.org/~robbinspg/RC1 The code is tagged in svn: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/tags/cpp-0.1.incubating-M1/ < http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/tags/cpp-0.1.incubating-M1/%C2%A0 > Please vote to publish the Milestone 1 release distributions. Please take some time to download the distributions, review them and test them in your environment before voting. The vote is open for the next 72 hours, please vote by July 9th, 23:00 BST. At least three +1 votes are required, and only the votes from Tuscany committers are binding. If the majority of all votes is positive, I will send a summary of that vote to the Incubator's general list to formally request the Incubator PMC to approve the Tuscany C++ Milestone 1 release. For your reference the Incubator release policy guidelines are available at http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html#Releases. Release Summary ============= Tuscany SCA C++ provides a runtime implementation for the Service Component Architecture 0.9 specification, written in C++ and will currently support C++ component implementation types. This is not yet a complete implementation and known restrictions are described below. Supported SCA Assembly Model features * All features are supported unless listed under the known restrictions below. See SCA Assembly Model specification. Supported language bindings * Component implementations written in C++. See SCA Client and Implementation Model specification. * Component interfaces described by C++ classes. See SCA Client and Implementation Model specification. Supported external service and entry point bindings * The web service binding is supported. This implementation will support web services which using document literal SOAP bindings conforming to the WS-I basic profile (rpc/encoded is not yet supported). Known restrictions * Subsystem: wiring, entry points and external services are not supported. * Local service interfaces cannot use overloaded operations (the SCA specification limits remote service interfaces to not using overloaded operations). * Each WSDL definition for a web service binding must be in a single WSDL document. * No load time validation of the deployed SCA application (run time validation only). * No metadata API. A sample is included which demonstrates deploying an SCA module, component wiring, locating and invoking C++ service from C++ component, invoking from a C++ client, and exposing a service as a web service using ws binding.
