Hi, +1 (non-binding, jfeinauer).
I did - download staged artifacts. Check their signature and hashes. - [RM] verify the reported signature is for an "apache.org" address ("gpg: Good signature from ...") - verify the existence of LICENSE, NOTICE, README, RELEASE_NOTES files in the extracted source bundle - [RM] verify the staged source README, RELEASE_NOTE files correspond to those in the extracted source bundle - check the contents of LICENSE, NOTICE, README, RELEASE_NOTES - UNPACK the binary artefact and check the contents of LICENSE-binary and NOTICE-binary - build from directions in README - [RM] review target/rat.txt (though the build should fail if RAT constraints aren't met) - Find and files containing binary content with this command: find . -type f -name 'rat.txt' -exec grep -l " B " {} \; - Then review for B (binary) content in those files: grep " B " target/rat.txt - Search for SNAPSHOT references find . -type f -name 'pom.xml' -exec grep -| "SNAPSHOT" {} \; - did a full `mvn clean install` on OS X 10.14.4 Julian Am 26.07.19, 16:16 schrieb "Julian Feinauer" <j.feina...@pragmaticminds.de>: Hi all, First, thanks to all of you for the support. This first RC is the result of a long process and I want to thank all who participated in it. Special thanks go to our Mentors Justin and Chris who did a lot of support to make this RC hopefully a success. Apache IoTDB (Incubating) 0.8.0 has been staged under [2] and it’s time to vote on accepting it for release. All Maven artifacts are available under [1]. If approved we will seek final release approval from the IPMC. Voting will be open for 72hr. A minimum of 3 binding +1 votes and more binding +1 than binding -1 are required to pass. Release tag: release/0.8.0 Hash for the release tag: 040cbd175b92969cbabf5548fe3df1cac7c88011 Per [3] "Before voting +1 [P]PMC members are required to download the signed source code package, compile it as provided, and test the resulting executable on their own platform, along with also verifying that the package meets the requirements of the ASF policy on releases." You can achieve the above by following [4]. [ ] +1 accept (indicate what you validated - e.g. performed the non-RM items in [4]) [ ] -1 reject (explanation required) [1] https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheiotdb-1001 [2] https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/iotdb/0.8.0/rc1 [3] https://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#approving-a-release [4] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/IOTDB/Validating+a+staged+Release
