Oh gee … I completely forgot about this … so here another go at it ;-)
--------------------------- The Apache Edgent project is pleased to announce release 1.2.0-incubating! Apache Edgent is a stream processing programming model and lightweight micro-kernel style runtime to execute analytics at devices on the edge or at the gateway. Since the release of Apache Edgent 1.1.0 we have worked greatly on improving the build. Not only in order to make it easier to release Edgent it also simplifies onboarding of new committers as well as using Apache Edgent. As an additional result of this effort now almost all artifacts are available as Java 8 but also as Java 7 and Android versions. This is the first release of Apache Edgent to be built with Maven and hereby provide all Edgent artifacts via the usual Maven distribution mechanisms. But besides the build system changes, we have added a number of bug fixes and enhancements. Starting with Apache Edgent 1.2.0 the samples have also been moved to a separate GIT repository [1] Visit the Apache Edgent website [2] for general information or the downloads page [3] for release notes and download information.

Or should I post this version? It’s not bad but I’m trying to figure out how it might be improved: - add a statement capturing the theme of the release - to make it easier to get started / create apps - also note the release includes a number of bug fixes and enhancements - maybe leave out the source-bundle-only comment - not sure how much to elaborate in the announcement text itself (e.g., sample restructuring, template, packaging tools?) - not sure how important it is to say here that build tooling has been changed to Maven Maybe replace: > This is the first release of Apache Edgent to be built with Maven and hereby > provide all Edgent artifacts via the usual Maven distribution mechanisms. > > The release includes only source bundles. With something like: Release 1.2.0-incubating makes it easier for users to create Edgent applications: - The release’s binary artifacts are now distributed via the usual Maven distribution mechanisms - The samples were restructured and an application template project and some application packaging tools have been added - There are bug fixes and other enhancements Just at thought. You’re the RM so you can decide :-) — Dale > On Dec 18, 2017, at 4:44 AM, Christofer Dutz <christofer.d...@c-ware.de> wrote: > > Any comments to this?
