| Subject | A modest suggestion about testing versus release votes |
| Date | Tue, 05 Jul 2011 12:39:21 GMT |
Might I suggest some sort of informal testing process *before* you call a vote? Go ahead, if you like, and stage XXX-RC-1 to nexus, but don't call a vote. Get people to test it and find problems like broken links and missing notices. When it all looks clean, just drop the staged repo, and run the release with the actual release version. Then your votes can look like 95% of all the other votes at apache; a pretty rapid verification process. | |
