Ok, stop. I think you are all conflating "releases" with what is required to continue here at the ASF. "releases" have not been the main issue. The month offers the chance to * patches all submitted to the list for peer review, not passed around the classroom or through an instructor. * vote in new committers who offer consistently clean patches and who express an interest in continuing to contribute * commit patches as posted to the list per items one and two * bring all development discussion to the list (again, as opposed to a closed group such as the classroom) * resolve licensing issues None of this actually involves a "release" per say. If these five things are not done, I believe the incubator will vote down any release. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
