Xiaolong, Thanks for your information, very useful. I believe that we could make this better (and probably we "must"). Cutting a "release" in the ASF is a more involved and formal process.
Releasing a project must run through a formal validation process, and must be validated by the PMC of the project. Because we must ensure (for instance): - quality of the release - the provenance of each contribution to the release and all other licensing issues - consensus about the status of the release This is why there is always a VOTE and a formal process https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html I understand that cutting a release for a helm chart is somehow different for some aspects, especially when we have to think about how to store the sources and the binaries of what has been released. In the ASF we release "sources" and "convenience binaries". Creating a tag on the git repo is not enough to say that we cut a release, but for how this stuff works it makes the chart usable from users and we must take this into consideration as an "official release". Probably I am only missing some docs or some discussions, as said, I am new to the processes of this community, but I would like to understand if we are doing well and if we are doing the required steps mandated by the ASF. My understanding is that we need at least: - creating a source tarball and put it somewhere - run a VOTE thread - announce the release to annou...@apache.org If there is no process yet, then it is not a problem, we can ask the ASF about the best practices on releasing Helm Charts and create our Pulsar way of releasing the Helm Chart.
