+1 I recommend that the PMC continues its vote on 4.0-rc1. With the understanding that the ASF updates the policy documentation to be clear and accurate, and we work fast at fixing the issues for the next release that occurs once those doc updates are in place. Getting 4.0-rc1 out with the same state as a hundred or more previous releases is fine IMO, until the ASF docs are clear and don't require knowledge of precedence, legal tickets, ML threads, and individual's interjections. Justin, your help on the LICENSE (1) and NOTICE (4) would be greatly appreciated. Missing copyright headers are already fixed. And if CASSANDRA-16391 can't be done quickly I can look into how to hack the release process to replace lib/ with a curl script. cheers, Mick
