+1 to release. Concerns/Issues/general feedback: - gen-java as mentioned like Sebb (The generated files included in the tarball), but not a blocking problem. We have various generated bits in httpd's tarbals, I don't think this is a critical issue. - The use of SVN Snapshots of projects like Thrift -- This is really a Thrift problem that the Thrift project needs to fix, but it should not block Cassandra from releasing. We have done releases of httpd that depend on APR svn snapshots before, it sucks, but we've done it. - Don't know the details of how `ant release` works, but things like bin/cassandra didn't have +x executable bit on them. - The BUGS.txt file feels out of place and pretty short, Maybe a Current Limitations section in a the README.txt, with a link to the wiki. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
