As I understand the release guidelines, one is not allowed to put something
on dist.apache.org until after a release vote by the Incubator PMC approves
that release:

"Only formally-approved releases may be distributed from the main
directories" [1]

For this candidate, as with our last two releases, we followed this piece
of information:

"It is traditional that release managers use their Apache home space to
make available release candidates. " [1]

To date, we only push to dist.apache.org once we have received approval
here.  Can you point me to the guidelines that lead you to believe that
this must be staged on dist.apache.org?

Thanks,
Jacques
