Hi All, Voting +0 for now because of the two strange .txt files and helm index issue (below)
Verified: * Checksums * Signatures * Build from source So far all clear. However: $ helm repo add polaris-rc https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/polaris/helm-chart Error: looks like "https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/polaris/helm-chart"; is not a valid chart repository or cannot be reached: failed to fetch https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/polaris/helm-chart/index.yaml : 404 Not Found IIRC, the idea was for the RCs to host a new helm index verbatim. The index will then replace the old index at release publication time. This way we'd be able to validate its exact contents before making it available to all users. WDYT? Cheers, Dmitri.
