Before release, a branch should have been be created for that release in the form <major>.<minor>. For example:
svn copy https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/hama/trunk https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/hama/branches/0.2 |
svn up |
2. Build the Hama distribution:
ant clean tar |
3. Digitally sign the distribution hama-X.X.X.tar.gz.
gpg --armor --output hama-X.X.X.tar.gz.asc --detach-sig hama-X.X.X.tar.gz gpg --verify hama-X.X.X.tar.gz.asc hama-X.X.X.tar.gz md5sum hama-x.x.x.tar.gz > hama-x.x.x.tar.gz.md5 sha1sum hama-x.x.x.tar.gz > hama-x.x.x.tar.gz.sha1 |
Each release must be voted by the PMC on the hama-dev mailing list. Vote threads are indicated by starting the subject line with \[VOTE\]. |
For a vote to pass at least three +1 votes are needed. Votes are normally run for 72 hours. When starting the vote, indicate the date and time the vote period ends.
When the vote period ends, tally up the votes and report the final result to the mailing list.
Once three PMC members (PPMC and IPMC) have voted for a release, it may be published.
