I have created a new candidate build for Avro release 1.8.0 following the rc0 vote in August that didn't pass due to licensing/notice issues. (Thanks to Ryan and Sean for fixing them!)
The changes are listed at: http://s.apache.org/avro180 The release artifacts can be found here: *https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/avro/avro-1.8.0-rc1/ <https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/avro/avro-1.8.0-rc1/>* The tag corresponding to this release candidate is *http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/avro/tags/release-1.8.0-rc1/ <http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/avro/tags/release-1.8.0-rc1/>* You can find the KEYS file here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/avro/KEYS The Maven staging repository is at: *https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheavro-1003 <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheavro-1003>* Please download, verify, and test. This is the first release that has been built using Docker, so please pay extra attention to the languages you are interested in. Thanks in advance for voting! Cheers, Tom
