In general, the source-release.zip file is supposed to have these properties:
1) it should be the same (with perhaps some minor exceptions) as the svn tag 2) Checking out the tag and "building" from the tag should give some result; getting the source-release.zip file and "building from that, should give essentially the same result. See http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#what I'm not sure having a linux-source and a windows-source is the best idea for this. Could we have a source-release that looks more like the svn tag, and serves for both windows and linux targets? Or is there some reason that's not such a good approach? Note that current Apache practice is to name this file ....source-release.zip (and only provide the zip form). This is specified (for maven based builds) in the common apache super-pom. -Marshall On 1/9/2012 11:30 AM, Bhavani Iyer wrote: > Hello, > > I'd like to do a release of UIMA C++ SDK. > > The release will include updates to the ActiveMQ C++ service wrapper, > improvements to the Linux build process and bug fixes. > > The source and binary packages are available here: > http://people.apache.org/~bhavani/uimacpp-release-candidates/2.4.0/01/ > > The SVN tag is > https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/uima/uimacpp/tags/uimacpp-2.4.0-rc1 > > The issues fixed are listed RELEASE_NOTES.html in the binary zip/tar > release. > > Please install and test the packages and report any problems you find. > > Thanks, > Bhavani >
