Hi,
I had to do some tweaking of/around the ant release build target
(about which I will worry tomorrow), but I did manage to get the RC1
for 10.8.2.0 on the public_html site.
However, the automated process set the drdamaint number back to 0, and
I suspect that was wrong.
The release properties are written by
org.apache.derbyPreBuild.ReleaseProperties. Right now that program
hardcodes drdamaint to be 0. Here are some ways we can change that program:
1) Hardcode drdamaint to be 1.
2) Make drdamaint a parameter to the program, like the Derby version id.
3) Make the program retrieve drdamaint from the existing
release.properties file and write exactly what was read.
The meaning of drdamaint is unclear to me and I don't understand why
drdamaint is 0 on the trunk but is supposed to be 1 on the 10.8 branch.
What are your thoughts about the meaning of drdamaint and how this
program should behave?
Thanks,

So, before calling the test and vote I'd
like to make sure the fix for DERBY-5236 is still working correctly.
Otherwise I will need to spin a RC2 after looking at the release
target to prevent it from resetting that number.
I'm running tests, but I didn't see any specific test included in the
backport, so, Knut, can you check the release works properly with
regard to your fix?
It can be downloaded from:

Thx,
