It should not be done, by definition of being in the Incubator. > Didn't Derby do one of these in December 2004 as per: > http://incubator.apache.org/derby/derby_downloads.html#Official+Releases "Official" or "Final" are probably not adjectives that should be applied during incubation. > If I'm messing up terminology Oh, the terminology got messed up long ago. LOL :-) Even the term "Release" has different connotations. It is neutral in the HTTP Server project (beta and GA releases, for example), whereas Jakarta refers to Nightly builds, Milestone builds and Release builds, so a Release is significant. We are trying to balance the need to support community development with the idea that projects in the incubator shouldn't confuse the public over their status by claiming the Apache imprimatur. --- Noel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
