Guys, please give this a spon. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Chris Douglas <cdoug...@apache.org> Date: Tue, Mar 9, 2010 at 6:17 PM Subject: Re: Looking for a Hadoop PMC contact To: bimargul...@gmail.com Cc: Ian Holsman <li...@holsman.net>
Benson/Ian- I've tried pushing artifacts to staging at repository.apache.org. Could you verify that it works for you? I'd like Giri to take a look at this before we publish it to the release repo, but if you could check this in the interim that would be great. Giri has been working on an ant target as you describe, HADOOP-6382. I used it to create and push these. If you have experience working with ant/ivy/maven, your review of this issue would help us commit it to 0.20.3 and speed future releases.
