Hi all, I would like to call a VOTE to release Apache Cloudberry (Incubating) 2.0.0-rc2 — the first official Apache release since the project entered incubation.
While the community has produced releases prior to joining the Apache Software Foundation, this is our first release under the ASF's governance, following the official Apache release process and incorporating all relevant legal, licensing, and distribution requirements. --- Key changes since 2.0.0-incubating-rc1: - Set Maven pom.xml project version to 2.0.0-incubating - Update version string from 2.0.0-incubating-rc1 to 2.0.0-incubating - Add configure-time check for protobuf, zstd, cmake when --enable-pax is specified - Add the notice to greenplum-path* scripts --- Release Candidate Artifacts Staged release artifacts: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/cloudberry/2.0.0-incubating-rc2/ Git tag: https://github.com/apache/cloudberry/releases/tag/2.0.0-incubating-rc2 Commit: https://github.com/apache/cloudberry/commit/868c4694f4c70203b7a7235c2db8346de98f08c0 PGP signature key: 3B90B5634E4506F05BA51F2FC9604135C07CD12A — Ed Espino (esp...@apache.org) KEYS file: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/cloudberry/KEYS How to Vote Please review the release and cast your vote below.

The official release consists solely of the source artifacts linked above. We will be gathering input from the development community on which convenience binaries would be most useful and plan to make them available in the near future via appropriate non-release channels. Please note: any such convenience binaries will not be official ASF releases and will be clearly labeled as such, in accordance with ASF policy. --- Thanks for reviewing and voting! Best, -=Ed Espino (on behalf of the Apache Cloudberry (Incubating) community)
