Link please? because I can't find it, and a couple of folks from the httpd PMC tell me this isn't the case. I don't think there's a problem with snapshots or nightly builds being available. I do think there is a problem with promoting nightly builds, or even promoting them from the website. I do think that the Release Policy is binding on projects, and more so on podlings that haven't kicked out a release yet. More generally to the underlying issue that prompted this discussion: With the concrete example of Geode's DockerHub presence, I don't think it's acceptable: https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/apachegeode/geode/ Specifically, it's promoting folks consume a nightly build. There's no warning that this hasn't met the ASF standards for software, or that this project hasn't even pushed out a release yet. Then there's the fact that the dockerfile isn't even coming from the ASF it's coming from: https://github.com/markito/geode-docker --David --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
