This is a slight majority (of binding votes) for accepting the
proposed change, but given the clear lack of consensus and the
concerns voiced about that, I unfortunately need to conclude that this
issue should be tabled until better consensus is reached.
The main impression I got from the related discussion is that the main
concern is not that much the security or transparency of the Maven
repository but rather the status of incubating releases in general.
Are incubating releases official releases of the ASF? Does the ASF
"endorse" these releases, and what does that endorsement mean? How
strong disclaimers are needed and what level of explicit
acknowledgement from users is required? Until we have a clearer policy
on what we actually require of incubating releases and their
distribution, it seems premature to debate whether the Maven
repository meets those requirements.
So, before reopening this release distribution issue, I would expect
us to clarify the policy on incubating releases.
BR,
Jukka Zitting
