------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Call for a vote on derby-dev to have the distributions posted on your `public_html` accepted
for the release.
+ {i} It is not always easy to dechipher all the voting rules which govern the acceptance/rejection
of a release candidate. First there is the [http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html Apache
rules for releases], the [http://db.apache.org/decisions.html DB decision guidelines], and
finally the [http://db.apache.org/management.html DB PMC Bylaws].

- {i} A vote needs to be running for at least 7 days, so, give at least that much time before
closing the vote to give adequate time for others to inspect and test the distributions. If
no-one has responded after a week, prod gently until you get a response. A majority of votes,
and at least one binding +1 vote are required for acceptance.
+ The existing practice is: A vote needs to be running for at least 7 days, so, give at
least that much time before closing the vote to give adequate time for others to inspect and
test the distributions. If no-one has responded after a week, prod gently until you get a
response. A majority of votes, and at least one binding +1 vote are required for acceptance.
Forward or bcc a copy of the call for vote to private@db.apache.org so the DB PMC is aware
that a vote is in progress. Also forward the results post to private@db.apache.org. ( <!>
Note: do not '''cc''' the PMC; '''bcc''' or forward a copy of the post.)
