(with some reservations noted here: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-630)

In 2.3.1 one can capture an image with a long name ($destination_base_name has 
more than 29 characters), but it is not possible to load it, since the name of 
the vmdk file differs from what is recorded in the database.

I don't think this is a show-stopper of an issue, but it will cause some pain 
for those using vCenter.

Otherwise, the release looks good.

All of the JIRA issues associated with 2.3.1 are now resolved.  Here is our
first try at voting to release 2.3.1.

I created a release artifact based off of the 2.3 bugfixes branch.  I copied
that branch to a tag under the tags area of the repo that is named
release-2.3.1-RC1:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/vcl/tags/release-2.3.1-RC1/

The artifact is an export from that tag with the addition of Dojo Toolkit
version 1.6.1 with a custom VCL profile bundled in the web code.  The
artifact, MD5 and SHA1 sums, and my GPG signature of it are available from
my space on people.a.o:

http://people.apache.org/~jfthomps/apache-VCL-2.3.1-RC1/

The list of resolved JIRA issues associated with this release can be found
under 2.3.1 on the Change Log page in the staging area of the CMS:

http://vcl.staging.apache.org/docs/changelog.html

Installation instructions are in the INSTALLATION file included in the
artifact and in the staging area of the CMS:

http://vcl.staging.apache.org/docs/VCL231InstallGuide.html

I was able to successfully do test installs and upgrades, including image
deploying and capture.

The directory created by extracting the RC1 artifact is
"apache-VCL-2.3.1-RC1" (after extracting, you may want to rename it to
"apache-VCL-2.3" so you can copy and paste all of the commands in the
installation guide).  Licensing information about perl and its required
modules, php and its required modules, and mysql are stated as "system
requirements" according to the information under "System Requirements" on
http://www.apache.org/legal/3party.html.
After we finalize a release vote, the staging part of the CMS will be
published to update the production site.

Please vote by the end of the day on Tuesday, December 18th to publish this
release (this allows for 3 business days to vote).  Please note that anyone
in the VCL community is allowed to vote.

[ ] +1 yes, release VCL 2.3.1
[ ] 0 dunno
[ ] -1 no, don't release VCL 2.3.1 (provide reasons if this is your vote)
