<nod> the usual process is a proposal followed (once the release preparations have been completed) by a formal VOTE thread. it's particularly important here in the commons to have a VOTE thread since most committers use filtering on the subject and may not pick the vote up promptly otherwise. of course, if you were planning to cut some release candidates which people can vote upon (and it's all been a misunderstanding) then everything's cool :) - robert --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
