It came to my attention on IRC a week or so ago, and following up on the
ticket that someone asked if they should commit to 2.1, that developers
have been actively ignoring the 2.1 branch. If we're not committing
critical fixes there, even when we know they exist, I think it's time to
just call it
No problem, thanks for asking :)

Yeah, I asked if someone made a request thinking I totally missed it!
Since the last couple tick-tock releases, which were time based, every
release has been initiated by someone commenting in IRC or dev@ that
"there are a lot of things in CHANGES.txt" or "important fix foo has

It's been 5 months and 30+ bug fixes to each branch.
Here's the two changelogs:

and we need a release, but we keep finding other bugs and it's super
tempting to say "one more fix"
We should probably just cut next 3.0.x and 3.11.x though, because there are

I don't know if it would (especially by itself), I just know that if more
people are able to do releases that's more opportunity to do so.

Also, in case someone brings it up, there's an ongoing relevant
discussion on the builds@a.o list on automating releases, which includes
lots of good thoughts on the topic.

To-do items that might further the goal of getting more people involved
in releases, here are a couple tickets on this:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14962
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14963
#14962 is really a "we're doing it wrong" ticket on release artifacts
Mick and I have discussed this previously, but I don't recall if it was
email or irc. Apologies if I was unable to describe the problem to a
point of general understanding.
To reiterate the problem, changing gpg signature keys screws our debian
and redhat package repositories for all users. Tarbal
That's a good point. Looking at the ASF docs I had assumed the release
manager was per-project, but on closer inspection it appears to be
per-release. You're right, it does say that it can be any committer.

Shouldn't any PMC (or committer) should be able to be a release manager?
The release process should be reliable and reproducible enough to be safe for
rotating release managers eve
I agree with Stefan, if someone isn't a release manager there's no reason
to add them, and it just increases the surface area for potential attack or
issue.

I don't see any reason to have any keys in there, except from release
managers who are signing releases. Additional keys from other developers
may even harm security, by creating more opportunities for compromising
keys.

Currently our KEYS file: that contains the public keys of those that can signed
released binary artifacts; only contains a few of the PMC. My understanding is
that we've avoid updating it because it causes headache for operators in having
