<p>Start conversations around topics you’re passionate about, and volunteer to
be the one to address them.</p>
<p>Do not, however, just talk to be seen. Nobody is fooled by that.</p>
<h2 id="test-and-vote-on-releases-non-binding">Test, and vote on releases
(non-binding) <a class="headerlink" title="Permalink"
href="#test-and-vote-on-releases-non-binding">¶</a></h2>
-<p>Testing releases, and then reporting problems or suggesting
-improvements, is one of the most important functions of users, and is an
-important way to contribute to a project. It also familiarizes you with
-the function of the software, which will lead you to be a better
-contributor.</p>
-<p>Many projects use CI to continuously test proposed patches and PRs. Each
-platform needs to be individually set up for testing, and often the
-projects do not have enough people familiar with the specific
-environments that might benefit from testing. You can propose additional
-platforms to test on.</p>
-<p>Vote on release candidates and releases (non-binding).</p>
-<p>Note that a vote should always mean that you’ve actually tested, so testing
releases is implied here, too. Indicate what platform(s) you’ve tested on, and
what was the nature of the tests that you performed. Testing releases on a
variety of platforms and configurations is a very valuable piece of information
for projects with limited testing infrastructure.</p>
-<p>While these votes don’t “count” towards making a release
official, it’s both hugely beneficial for the project, and increases your
visibility.</p>
+<ul>
+<li><a href="https://apache.org/info/verification.html";>How to verify a
release</a></li>
+</ul>
+<p>Verifying release candidates and voting for the release are critical
+parts of an Apache project’s life. They are also a great way to learn
more
+about the project, understand how and why the ASF releases software, and
+raise your own profile in the project community.</p>
+<p>Each time a project proposes to release an artifact, there is a
<code>[VOTE]</code>
+thread on the project’s <code>dev</code> mailing list.
+(<a
href="https://lists.apache.org/thread/48co7brm91pv0yjqd9fgpptrb7r9jnp3";>Example</a>)
+Since you’re already monitoring the mailing list, you’ll see these
votes.
+Any community participant can vote on the release – including you!</p>
+<p>Although only PMC members’ votes officially count towards the final
vote tally,
+your review of the release candidate and vote are important for several
reasons.</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Help ensure it’s a good release by potentially finding problems that
benefit the entire community</li>
+<li>Build trust in the project community by demonstrating your engagement and
interest</li>
+<li>Stay current with new releases to keep your knowledge fresh</li>
+<li>Learn about project components you’re not directly involved with
+(especially for projects which release multiple artifacts)</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Release verification has two main purposes: first, ensuring the release
artifact
+follows all official ASF release rules; second, confirming the release works as
+expected. So in your vote message, you <em>should</em> indicate what you
+verified. If you tested functionality, say what you tested, and on what
+operating system(s) and architecture(s). (See example vote thread listed above
for
+how you might format this information.)</p>
+<p>Non-PMC members should indicate their votes as
<code>"(Non-binding)"</code> to help
+the release manager tally votes correctly.</p>
<h2 id="give-talks">Give talks <a class="headerlink" title="Permalink"
href="#give-talks">¶</a></h2>
<p>Propose talks to conferences about the project, and about how your
employer’s customers are using it.</p>
<p>Proposing “Introduction to Apache Woobly” talks has many
benefits. It is a great way to get the word out about the project. It’s good
for establishing yourself as an expert in the field. It educates users (and
potential customers) about operating the software. And it will help you
identify what’s actually important about the software, how people use it, and
what kinds of questions real users are asking about the software.</p>
