I am going to include the lack of a release manager for 3.0 in the board report, and assign myself an action item to fix it.

At this point I think my best bet is to appeal on the d...@community.apache.org mailing list for a mentor who is familiar with the release process to guide me through the steps. However, I am very open to alternative suggestions.

Peter? Anyone?

I have time, but not the knowledge. I would be willing to be release
manager provided at least one person who knows how it is done will
provide a lot of step-by-step guidance.

Not really I am afraid.  I am quite heavily committed on several projects

never done development on river itself. And I have never participated
in an
Apache project release.  I am just not a good candidate for this.

Thanks,

Would it be useful to tag it as a 3.0 beta release initially, or
just go
to 3.0 and add point releases as needed?

I will vote in favor of releasing it either way.

Or just release it.  If problems emerge, people can report them and

As far as I can tell, the main remaining release blocker it

Maybe it would be good to say a few words about the release goals
for

3.0?
I.e., 3.0 provides a deep refactoring that address performance,
concurrency
and scaling issues.  Significant progress has been made towards the
3.0
release target.  X new tests have been developed for this release.
The
remaining blockers for a release are ....
