We have fixed quite a few bugs and added some significant enhancements since Apache Commons Imaging 1.0-alpha2 was released, so I would like to release Apache Commons Imaging 1.0-alpha3.

CLIRR and JApiCmp reports are not being used during the alpha releases, but will be used again in the 1.0 release (alpha3 is expected to be the last 1.0 alpha release.)

Kinoshita, Release Manager (using key 33C6E01240C5468C2B7A556954E2764B48A42DF0) The following is intended as a helper and refresher for reviewers. Validating a release candidate ============================== These guidelines are NOT complete. Requirements: Git, Java, Maven. You can validate a release from a release candidate (RC) tag as follows. 1) Clone and checkout the RC tag git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-imaging.git --branch commons-imaging-1.0-alpha3-RC1 commons-imaging-1.0-alpha3-RC1 cd commons-imaging-1.0-alpha3-RC1 2) Check Apache licenses This step is not required if the site includes a RAT report page which you then must check. mvn apache-rat:check 3) Check binary compatibility Older components still use Apache Clirr: This step is not required if the site includes a Clirr report page which you then must check. mvn clirr:check Newer components use JApiCmp with the japicmp Maven Profile: This step is not required if the site includes a JApiCmp report page which you then must check. mvn install -DskipTests -P japicmp japicmp:cmp 4) Build the package mvn -V clean package You can record the Maven and Java version produced by -V in your VOTE reply. To gather OS information from a command line: Windows: ver Linux: uname -a 5) Build the site for a single module project Note: Some plugins require the components to be installed instead of packaged. mvn site Check the site reports in: - Windows: target\site\index.html - Linux: target/site/index.html 6) Build the site for a multi-module project mvn site mvn site:stage Check the site reports in: - Windows: target\site\index.html - Linux: target/site/index.html -the end-
