Might have been hard to see in this long > thread Ironically, when the Incubator first formed, podlings could NOT do a release and many yelled about it. Accordingly, after much discussion on how, that rule was changed so that a podling *could* do a release. Later, some people felt that it was not only possible, but should be mandatory to see a project go through the release process, and (in another irony), I believe that some of those asking to skirt the issue for Subversion were amonst those pushing to see the projects do a release before graduation. Later on, there was a push from the Infrastructure team (as noted already by Joe), wanting to make sure that the podling knew the processes for doing a release on ASF infrastructure. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
