> Preparation for V2.0 release
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: SINGA-433
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SINGA-433
> Project: Singa
> Issue Type: Task
> Reporter: wangwei
> Priority: Major
> Time Spent: 2h 50m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> As discussed in the dev list, we are going to release v2.0 with some news
> features and API changes. This ticket includes the tasks listed in the
> [release process
> page|http://singa.apache.org/en/develop/how-to-release.html]. If you want to
> take one task, please include the task name and ID in the comments.
>
> 1. Select a release manager. The release manager (RM) is the coordinator for
> the release process. It is the RM's signature (.asc) that is uploaded
> together with the release. The RM generates KEY (RSA 4096-bit) and uploads it
> to a public key server. The RM needs to get his key endorsed (signed) by
> other Apache user, to be connected to the web of trust. He should first ask
> the mentor to help signing his key.
> [http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html]
>
> 2. Check
> * the codebase does not include third-party code which is not compatible to
> APL;
> * The dependencies are compatible with APL. GNU-like licenses are NOT
> compatible;
> * All source files written by us MUST include the Apache license header:
> [http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html]. There's a script in there
> which helps propagating the header to all files.
> *
> 3. Check
> * The build process is error-free.
> * Unit tests are included (as much as possible)
> * The Jupyter notebooks are working with the new release
> * The online documentation on the Apache website is up to date.
> * Update the NOTICE file. If we include any third party code in the release
> package which is not APL, must state it at the end of the NOTICE file.
> *
> 4. Prepare the RELEASE_NOTES file. Introduction, Features, Bugs (link to
> JIRA), Changes (N/A for first erlease), Dependency list, Incompatibility
> issues. Follow this example:
> [http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-digester/commons-digester-3.0/RELEASE-NOTES.txt].
> Prepare DISCLAIMER file. modify from
> [http://incubator.apache.org/guides/branding.html#disclaimers]
>
> 5. Package the release. The release should be packaged into :
> apache-singa-incubating-xx.xx.xx.tar.gz. The release should not include any
> binary files including git files. Upload the release. The release is uploaded
> to the RM’s Apache page: people.apache.org/~ID/.
> * apache-singa-incubating-xx.xx.xx.tar.gz
> * KEY
> * XX.acs
> * XX.md5
> Roll out artifacts to mirrors. svn add to “dist/release/incubator/singa”
> Delete old artifacts (automatically archived)
> *
> 6. Update the Download page. The tar.gz file MUST be downloaded from mirror,
> using closer.cgi script; other artifacts MUST be downloaded from main Apache
> site
> Good idea to update EC2 image and make it available for download as well
>
> 7. Make the internal announcements. Template for singa-dev@ voting:
