Hi,

IMO either way it should be ok because

It’s not OK as it doesn’t agree with ASF release policy. You can’t provide 
release candidates to the general public and call them releases.

I do see that several ASF projects seem to avoid this issue but I’m not sure 
how they do it. (See for instance the httpd project) [1]

From what I can see with httpd, the issue is the same(?) - GitHub interprets a tag as a release at the time of tagging, not the time of releasing (github "released" 2.4.38 21 days ago, ASF released it 19 days ago). Short of going in and removing the tag, there's little we can do, it's just a bad hardcoded feature that GitHub has.


Thanks,
Justin
