Hi everyone, >From my previous mail, I'd like to propose a release candidate RC0 as a first step in the next Avro 1.12.2 release. This is a pre-vote to help prepare validation for the next release candidate.
The commit id is 3dd516fb146a8e733867ece19b15a01a37a68595 * This corresponds to the tag: release-1.12.2-rc0 * https://github.com/apache/avro/releases/tag/release-1.12.2-rc0 The release tarball, signature, and checksums are here (revision 84687) * https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/avro/avro-1.12.2-rc0/ You can find the KEYS file here: * https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/avro/KEYS Binary artifacts for Java are staged in Nexus here: * https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/staging/org/apache/avro/avro/1.12.2/ This release includes the following Jira issues: * https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project%3DAVRO%20AND%20fixVersion%3D1.12.2 Please feel free to try some validation on this candidate! I'm continuing the release prep work and we should have another one for a vote soon. If, like many of us, you have a limited amount of time to spend, please prioritize the next release candidate when it comes out. If you have a little more time and would like to help out with the release, we can always use additional hands on the admin side: - Writing the changelog - Releasing the website - Checking that the JIRA issues in the commits are correctly marked with version 1.12.2 - And of course, identifying and reviewing priority and bug PRs and cherry-picking them to branch-1.12 for the next release candidate. All my best, Ryan
