Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-14085:
----------------------------------------
bq. For me personally, the way I read my responsibility to the foundation as a
PMC member means I'll be voting -1 until legal rules on the license or we
replace it.
The way I read LEGAL-222 is it is not as clear cut as I think is implied here.
The question is on a small number of files bundled in the JRuby jar, which is
only included in binary convenience release artifacts.
We have larger issues than just the slate of release candidates on deck if
there is a problem, every available release in the archive and on the mirrors
is affected. That said I buy the argument that we can't release something that
has a question mark.
I believe it is immediately possible to resume releases, as long as we stick to
source only releases until the matter is cleared up.
It would also be possible to resume releases including binary artifacts as long
as we exclude the binary artifacts for the hbase-shell module.
