Hi Jeff, The process for getting a release made is pretty simple. In short ... 1. Somebody in the Project Management Committee (PMC) proposes that a release be made. 2. The PMC discusses and votes on the idea. 3. People volunteer for certain duties: Release Manager (RM), testing, updating docs, fixes, etc. 4. The RM makes the SVN branch and tag.
It has been a while since ctakes has had a release and people have been asking about the possibility. So ... I am going to push forward with #1 right now ... The github mirror has had issues in the past. we aren't directly in charge of it as the overworked Apache Infra team owns such things. I can certainly alert them to the repos being out of sync. Thanks, Sean ________________________________________ From: Jeffrey Miller <jeff...@gmail.com> Sent: Friday, July 31, 2020 10:51 AM To: dev@ctakes.apache.org Subject: Re: Clarification regarding NegationFSM [EXTERNAL] [EXTERNAL] [EXTERNAL] [EXTERNAL] * External Email - Caution * Sean, When I use cTAKES I'd like to be able to refer to the version number for reproducibility. If I run just the latest trunk (to get access to a new feature), it is not easily referenced. How is it decided to make a new cTAKES release? Do you think there will be any future releases or would it be better to begin referring to cTAKES by svn commit rather than version? Also, unrelatedly, I am not sure when this happened, but the github mirror for cTAKES (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_apache_ctakes&d=DwIBaQ&c=qS4goWBT7poplM69zy_3xhKwEW14JZMSdioCoppxeFU&r=fs67GvlGZstTpyIisCYNYmQCP6r0bcpKGd4f7d4gTao&m=HWEXBNb1tzID3h-S9JDelDpenSBR8d-xbhX5c33KhtI&s=1WEwAbr5uIVVJQDVC8tAPpA5xgyUR1YNjDE7IT50xB0&e= ) doesn't seem to be updating. It doesn't have dockhand (as an example).
