Hello,
I would like call a vote for the Apache CouchDB 0.9.1 release,
second round.
We encourage the whole community to download and test these release
artifacts so
that any critical issues can be resolved before the release is made.
Everyone is
free to vote on this release, so get stuck in!
We are voting on the following release artifacts:
http://people.apache.org/~nslater/dist/0.9.1/
These artifacts have been built from the 0.9.1 tag in Subversion:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/couchdb/tags/0.9.1/
Happy voting,

I did a few quick checks on the release candidate.
Test 1: diff -r against 0.9.0 release
Result: Expected source file differences, no emerging or disappearing
files
Test 2: diff -r against 0.9.1 tag
A couple of files from the 0.9.1 tag did not make it into the release:
Only in 0.9.1: acinclude.m4.in
Only in 0.9.1/m4: ac_check_curl.m4.gz
Only in 0.9.1/m4: ac_check_icu.m4.gz
Only in 0.9.1/share/www/script/test: attachment_names.js
Only in 0.9.1/src: Makefile.am
attachment_names.js is referenced in share/www/script/couch_tests.js,
so it does not appear to be an unnecessary dead file.
src/Makefile.am appears to be unnecessary since the root Makefile.am
skips the src directory and directly declares src/couchdb, etc.
The .gz files are expanded in the distribution.
Test 3: Apache RAT test (http://incubator.apache.org/rat/)
RAT reports the following files without the Apache license notice in
the SVN tag:
./BUGS
./CHANGES
./THANKS
./etc/couchdb/default.ini.tpl.in
./etc/couchdb/local.ini
./etc/couchdb/local_dev.ini
./etc/default/couchdb
./etc/launchd/org.apache.couchdb.plist.tpl.in
./etc/logrotate.d/couchdb.tpl.in
./share/www/_sidebar.html
./share/www/script/jquery.form.js
./share/www/script/jquery.js
./share/www/script/json2.js
./src/couchdb/couch.app.tpl.in
./src/ibrowse/ibrowse.app
...
./src/ibrowse/ibrowse_test.erl
./src/mochiweb/mochifmt.erl
...
./src/mochiweb/mochiweb_util.erl
./src/mochiweb/reloader.erl
./test/couch_config_test.erl
./test/couch_config_writer_test.erl
./test/runner.erl
./test/runner.sh
The share/www, src/ibrowse and src/mochiweb are expected since they
are not ASF code. However, the etc/couchdb, src/couchdb and test/
files all appear to be missing the required ASF license notice and are
not trivial.
Per http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#faq-exceptions, I
think that should block a release.
Sorry, here is my -1.
