I think we should release 1.5 "now" but in all the other projects I'm involved with a vote happens after the code is tagged and the actual artifacts that are proposed for release are built, staged, and ready for examination by the voters. That way you know exactly what the code you are voting on is (its been tagged) and you can look at the artifacts and check for proper legal files (something that always seems to get messed up between thinking you're ready for a release and actually building the artifacts).

What is the usual apacheds process? Is this a opinion poll on whether to tag, build, stage, and vote or the actual release vote? If the latter, how do you know what you're voting on?

thanks

Hi dear ADS developpers, and users,

we are working on ADS 1.5 since, say, last july (when it has been formaly named 1.1, and renamed to 1.5.0 in december). We have arrived at a point where we think that this version, even if not perfect, seems stable enough to deserve a release.

Many new features has been added, and we want to tag this version so that we can handle bug repports more easily, help people working on new features to merge with a new trunk, and also provide starving users with a brand new version :)

Time to vote now :
[ ] +1 : let's release this beast !
[ ] 0   : I don't really care
[ ] -1  : I don't agree, we are not ready for a release

Thanks a lot !
