As noted elsewhere I found some documentation on the expected release procedure and it isn't quite what I remembered.

I'm fine with releasing either ws-metadata 1.1.1 spec jar, although unless someone can convince me that the scm info in the rc2 one will be correct I'd prefer to release the first one that is missing scm info.

+1 to one or the other 1.1.1 ws-metadata jar.

I don't understand the release process for specs to tell what is going on, however there is no https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ geronimo/specs/tags/geronimo-ws-metadata_2.0_spec-1.1.1 (what i'd expect a 1.1.1 to be under) nor a https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ geronimo/specs/tags/geronimo-ws-metadata_2.0_spec-1.1 (what is actually shown in the newly added scm info). IMO its slightly better to have no information rather than wrong information.

At this point I'm
+0 on releasing the original (no scm info) ws-metadata 1.1.1 jar
-0 on releasing the modified one.

Keeping track of the spec release procedure is beyond my limited abilities, but what is happening is not what I expected. My dim recollections of the release procedure was that we would use the maven release plugin and that would correctly tag the source and generate/modify all the artifacts consistent with the new tag. I'm confused because there is no 1.1.1 tag that I can find for ws metadata and the scm info does not appear to be getting updated. Is this a maven bug, is it not supposed to be updated by the release plugin, or something else?

CXF is looking to cut their release starting on Friday and they need the WS-MetaData spec. Originally this was approved except it was missing the SCM tag. Prasad added that but this puts this particular spec being released after their date. It would be really helpful if we could approve this spec by tomorrow (Friday). Anyone opposed or have a comment on how to handle this?

Please review the specifications located at

The only changes that were made to the binaries that passed a vote
over the past weekend was to add the scm section to the pom.xml.

I have dropped jsp specs from the vote now.

ws-metadata will have a 3 digit version number (1.1.1) because 1.1.0
was already released some 6 weeks ago. This is a minor update to the
released version.

Voting concludes on Saturday, June 16th at 1700 ET.

Cheers
Prasad
