Hi Francesco, IMHO this sample project sources are nothing wich is really under development and hence I thought this should not be put into the Olingo project git repo. The quoted: > "[...] when a release consists of anything beyond an archive (e.g., tarball > or zip file) of a source control tag […]"
is from the section "MUST RELEASES BE BUILT ON HARDWARE OWNED AND CONTROLLED BY THE COMMITTER?” and "refers to the process used to produce a release artifact from a source control tag.”. [1] I think it is not for releases in general. The section "WHAT MUST EVERY ASF RELEASE CONTAIN?” implying to me that an "ASF release must contain a source package” and that an "ASF release must comply with ASF licensing policy”. Which is both fulfilled by the sample ZIP archive. However I am open for suggestions on how to handle such sample projects for download as ZIP archive. Should it be put in some git repo (and if yes in which)? (which is IMHO not useful). Or should we do not handle it as a ASF release? (which is IMHO the wrong and not the ASF way). Any opinions and suggestions?
