Re: release votes - should there be a minimum number of days that the vote is open for?

Hi, In general you should wait a minimum of 3 days, but if there an urgent security fix then that can be ignored. 3 days gives people in different time zones or who don’t work full time on the project a chance to respond and be involved in the project. A lot of releases taken more than 3 days.

Hi PJ, If we look at the Release policy it states that it SHOULD remain open for at least 72 hours [1]. In case we are talking about an emergency release/patch the 72 hours rule can be ignored. Cheers, Hans [1] https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#release-approval On 1 Jul 2023 at

Cliff has been doing so. Frankly, I suspect that many ASF projects need to clean up their releases to conform with the currently solidifying ASF-wide guidelines, but the Incubator PMC is more aware of them, and more diligent in applying them. From the perspective of being involved in one of

Agreed. Any tools that help incubating projects get off to the right start we be a good start. Even if it's just a check list that has all the things that have been found to be missing before in previous attempted releases would be a great idea. On 6/2/06, Paul Fremantle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wro
