It looks like 1.6 was released with the rcX name inside so I am guessing that procedure will work.
I might revise the parquet release process in the future. The tarballs and maven artifacts have the rc2 name inside the tarball since the name "rcX" was in the version in the pom. I don't think that the rcX should be in the pom version for the following reasons: 1) A release vote is on a specific source control tag. That tag should not be updated post release thus artifacts will always have an rcX name. 2) Having the rc number inside the pom results in tarballs with directories which contain the rc name which is confusing when the tarball itself does not. MRUnit can be used a reference on releasing from Apache. http://mrunit.apache.org/pmc/how_to_release.html Brock On Mon, Nov 17, 2014 at 10:55 AM, Ryan Blue <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > The parquet-format 2.2.0 release has been approved by the IPMC, so I'm > going to do the release.
