I'm realizing that I'm a bone-head and you didn't actually stage
anything yet :) Too much coffee and not enough close-reading. Sorry for
the spam. Hopefully some of it was helpful too.
One more thing just to make sure, you should use
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/pirk/ for your #2 point
until the vote passes (referencing files directly from nexus is OK too).
A simple `svn mv` can be done over to dist/release after that to
"promote" the artifacts to the ASF mirrors.

Hi Ellison Anne,
A couple of issues before getting to verifying the artfiacts:
* Can you please add the SHA1 for the git hash that the source-release
was built from? This is an important verification (I can see the point
in the repository which this code was built from).
* The KEYS file for Pirk is missing:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/pirk/KEYS (feel
free to copy a template from another project in dist.a.o). You should
have your key in there so we know what you used to sign the release.
It's also convenient to include the fingerprint of your key in the VOTE
(although I don't think that's a requirement).
I think that's all for now :). IMO, you can add a KEYS file and just
sent the SHA1 for the commit without having to cancel+re-VOTE.

Hi All,
After some hiccups last night getting the pom ready for release
(thanks for
fixing it Suneel!), we can now proceed with release voting. After we get
through our first release, our initial process will be documented on the
website for ease of access. In the future, we will send 'true' VOTE
emails
without all of the extra commentary.
[Mentors: Please correct any info/process that I have gotten wrong
below -
thanks!]
Following some of the best practice guidelines, let's hold our internal
release Pirk vote in two stages:
1) Vote-1 to approve the 0.1.0 candidate release branch
If that passes, then...
2) Vote-2 to approve the resulting files listed below, which will be
posted
at '
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/pirk/pirk-0.1.0-incubating'
for the release:
- apache-pirk-0.1.0-incubating-source-release.tar.gz
- apache-pirk-0.1.0-incubating-source-release.tar.gz.asc
- apache-pirk-0.1.0-incubating-source-release.tar.gz.md5
- apache-pirk-0.1.0-incubating-source-release.tar.gz.sha1
Once Vote-1 closes with +1 from at least 3 Pirk PPMC members, we will
move
on to Vote-2. After Vote-2 passes, we can move to call a Pirk release
vote
with the IPMC. Once the IPMC vote passes, we can push the first Pirk
maven
artifact.
I have tagged all JIRAs completed for this release with 'FixVersion =
0.1.0'. You can view them here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIRK-47?jql=project%20%3D%20PIRK%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D0.1.0
The following steps were used to prepare the branch (some Apache projects
have nice scripts to automate some of these checks -- we should consider
using one too):
- Verified the items Release Checklist (below, except for the checksums
and signatures for the branch cut)
- mvn clean release:clean
- mvn release:prepare -Darguments="-DskipTests" (new version:
0.1.0-incubating; SCM: apache-pirk-0.1.0-incubating; new dev version:
0.1.1-SNAPSHOT)
- mvn -Psigned_release release:perform -DdryRun=true
-Darguments="-DskipTests"
where 'signed_release' is defined in the maven settings.xml file as in
Suneel's example here:
https://gist.github.com/smarthi/ac1b5058f05ab17d2f84862940ec4eba
Please vote as follows:
+1 -- Accept this candidate release branch
-1 -- Don't accept this candidate release branch because....
This vote will run for 72 hours.
Thanks!
Ellison Anne
