OK, replying to myself.... I found in D2 of CreatingReleases:
"If vote fails, undo and redo previous steps as appropriate (make sure SVN tag is deleted before recreating). And rest assured that most releases need more than one release candidate ..." I am assuming that the process with the tag name (without RC in it) has already been discussed and that's ok for me. I wanted to delete the tag according to this description, but I can't: delete -m "reverted due to mvn error (delete tag necessary according to wiki)" http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/compress/tags/commons-compress-1.0 RA layer request failed svn: Server sent unexpected return value (403 Forbidden) in response to MKACTIVITY request for '/repos/asf/!svn/act/505eedcc-66b4-46d0-a84a-95e5cae3fb9a' Who can delete this tag please?
