Nothing definitive, but in general: 1. Releases wiki page -- https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson/wiki/Jackson-Releases -- and explicit sub-pages do get updated 2. We try to tweet via @fasterxml 3. There is also `jackson-announce` mailing list (alas, not reliable used)
I would be interested in knowing which method(s) would be most useful for users: I don't mind sending notifications, and learning better habits at ensuring these get done. But I want them to be useful and effective; and as of now I haven't gotten enough feedback to know which methods work best, or are/would be most valuable. One open question would be regarding target audience: automated systems vs developers. Also: if anyone knows of good integration features from, say, github, please let us know. I try to keep version-fixed-in up to date, but don't know if there are possible add-ons to help further. Obviously any new mechanism to use would need to have very low overhead for manual work. While doing a release takes a while (more for full minor release, less for patch; but still anywhere from 1.5 to 3-4 hours, if there are no significant issues) all additional work will feel progressively more punishing. :) Another possible spin-off is that if there is feeling that the decision process for release is too opaque (which it is -- I decide when it makes sense, and most of the time decide it with little outside input), I am also open to adding some minimal process. But what I do not want is process-theater with +1's sent by people who have ceremonial role; that is, no process for sake of appearances. Extra process could be as simple as my sending a proposal at least N hours before publishing the release. -+ Tatu +- On Tue, Sep 27, 2016 at 7:50 AM, Jonathan Monette <jon.mone...@gmail.com> wrote: > Is there a release email distribution that we can subscribe too for when > releases are cut?
