The relevant part is in the last paragraph. However, that says "convenience" and defines version numbering requirements, but it does /not/ state that the binaries are not sanctioned by the ASF and are not part of the official ASF release. It would be very useful if that paragraph were amended to say so explicitly. I've had no end of trouble trying to explain to managers and customers that any binaries that come from the ASF are not "official". Regardless of the policy stated numerous times in this thread and on this list, this is not clear anywhere in the bylaws or other online documentation (that I can find). -- Brane P.S.: I asked this same question on legal-discuss a week ago. My post has not even been moderated through as of today, so referring people to that list doesn't appear to be too helpful. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
