Hi Dave, Thank you for your response!
I know there would be no immediate conclusion about the release policy of golang client since it seems that it requires some discussions on the legal side. We can publish a tarball of the released source code and distribute it to the ASF svn dist repo for each release. Does that make sense? - Sijie On Thu, Mar 26, 2020 at 11:59 AM Dave Fisher <w...@apache.org> wrote: > Hi Sijie, > > Good plan.
