Hi all,

I think we can soon start with the Studio release. I see two remaining
issues, related to Mac platform that I want to address:

Signing the DMG:
* https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1176

Studio reported ad defective/corrupted software:
* https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1185
* https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1140

The ASF has a code signing service [1], but that only supports Windows
and Java Jars. For signing the DMG it seems we have to register at
developer.apple.com. I'll do that to get familiar with the procedure and
test it. Long term I'd prefer to use an organization (ASF or Apache
Directory) to sign instead of individual account.

I'll also look into some Mac-as-a-service platforms [2] to be able to
test the DMG on different MacOS versions.

I hope to start the release process this weekend or early next week.

Kind Regards,
Stefan
