Hi Nandish, CouchDB's reading of the policy suggests that it needs to be done on HW controlled by you or the ASF:
https://apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#owned-controlled-hardware As such, we only auto-generate binaries through Apache Jenkins CI, or directly on developer workstations/VMs (as opposed to Travis CI, Appveyor, etc.) It's also worth mentioning that binaries (such as RPMs), as far as I understand it, can't be considered official Apache release artefacts: https://apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#compiled-packages In an age where binary distribution is the predominant method of software consumption, and JAR file distribution has been the norm for Java-based pacakges for ages, I wonder if it's worth revisiting this policy. -Joan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nandish Jayaram" <njaya...@pivotal.io> To: dev@community.apache.org Sent: Wednesday, 1 November, 2017 1:52:15 PM Subject: Building release artifacts for an Apache project on docker container Hi All, The Apache MADlib team is working on creating CI pipelines, and we wanted to know if there are any Apache mandates for where the release artifacts must be built? We have a CI pipeline which builds the rpm on a docker container. Can this rpm be released as is, or should we only release artifacts built on physical machines? Thanks, MADlib team --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
