Hey- I'd like to start up another thread on what precisely is holding SDAP back from
1. Doing a release? It's my understanding (which is entirely possible it is wrong), that all that is required for an apache release is the code is created as an artifact some where (as well as checking licenses of dependencies, all the other checkboxes). I know there were some issues about most of the release processes being Java specific, and this project is Python, but it's not like you have to release to PyPi for it to "count" as an apache release. Why not call a code freeze across all repos, create artifacts, upload them to nexus, PPMC votes, vote passes, IPMC votes, and boom SDAP 1.0. I ask this not as a rhetorical question- I am sure there are some reasons its not quite that simple- what are they? 2. graduation- Afaik - the major issue is no release. What aside from that is holding this project back? It can be hard to read tone in email, so please don't read this as "Why the heck haven't you graduated yet?!?!" but more as a "If graduation is the goal, and releases are holding us back from that- what is the shortest path to doing a release?" Just some thoughts I had to distract me from this other thing I was working on while reading the board report- respond as you like. tg
