According to http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html:

"Votes should generally be permitted to run for at least 72 hours to provide an opportunity for all concerned persons to participate regardless of their geographic locations."

I read "next release" as meaning the release after the one we are voting on.

I would still like to release 2.2.0 as-is with a nicer-to-build (and better
docs on running the tests!) coming very soon after as 2.2.1.

Exactly how long do we need to leave the voting open for anyway?

You made a valid point about compiling and first impressions.

We should make a point of getting the next release out soon with better
build and test instructions.

Cheers,

If our incubator space is about to go away, maybe we should shove this
one out the door, for the sake of the better binaries and having a top
level release, and then produce 2.2.1 ASAP to clean up the loose ends.

The build is clean if the classes are removed. At least one QA test
fails. That is why I suggested as an alternative fix removing the two
classes and skipping the failing test.

I'm keen to get this release out, obviously. But like you say, bad
first
impressions do leave a lingering bad feel.

how does the build fail with the removed classes?

Cheers,

Tom

I don't like releasing with source code that does not compile
following
the build instructions in the release. It creates a bad first
impression
for anyone interested in the source code. I would like to see the
build
instructions updated, NameServiceImpl changed to be 1.5 compatible,
and
have an opportunity to test the new build instructions.

On the other hand, the release does get better code into the hands
of
people who are only interested in the binary.

I realize my negative vote is only symbolic. Three positive votes
are
enough to permit a release to go out.
