Sebb, I think we need a discussion on general@ about source.
I personally serve as release manager for about 3 Apache Maven plugins per month. None of them have a 'source release' in the sense you describe. There's a maven source jar artifact, and that's it. I'm happy to work with the Accumulo folks to add a full source package (I think tooling can be borrowed from Apache CXF), but the inconsistency here disturbs me. --benson On Fri, Nov 18, 2011 at 7:12 AM, sebb <seb...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 17 November 2011 21:16, Billie J Rinaldi <billie.j.rina...@ugov.gov> wrote: >> Please vote on releasing the following candidate as Apache Accumulo >> (incubating) version 1.3.5.
