Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-AntiAbuse: This header was added to track abuse, please include it with any abuse report X-AntiAbuse: Primary Hostname - gator74.hostgator.com X-AntiAbuse: Original Domain - incubator.apache.org X-AntiAbuse: Originator/Caller UID/GID - [47 12] / [47 12] X-AntiAbuse: Sender Address Domain - schor.com X-Virus-Checked: Checked by ClamAV on apache.org Apache UIMA just passed its release vote; where should we post the release? A recent change to the incubator policy resulted in the page http://incubator.apache.org/incubation/Incubation_Policy.html saying that distributions *must* be from www.a.o/dist/incubator/. The www.a.o/dist site on people.a.o doesn't have an incubator subdirectory. So it looks like we might be the first incubator project since this policy was enacted., unless implementation of this policy is being delayed. Can someone on the IPMC let us know if the implementation is being delayed? Assuming we should be following this new policy now, should we ask infra to establish the new dist/incubator directory and also ... /dist/incubator/uima (or do we have the karma to do this ourselves)? If we do this, because things posted here are mirrored, as I understand it, we need to update our download page to properly handle directing downloaders to the mirrors. Some of us have read the docs on how to do this, and we can give it a go - but we would appreciate some oversight by an experienced person :-). Any volunteers? The policy page doesn't say what, if anything, we need to do at this time for our previous releases - my preference would be to just leave things as they are, for now, for those. Is this OK? -Marshall --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscribe@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-help@incubator.apache.org
