In Yahoo, we have released it but there is no equivalent open source release.
The best solution would be to move the code to Apache a week later. However, the Yahoo legal had approved the code earlier and after that changing the code in yahoo-git was not legal any more. Therefore we stopped the release process then. I had a chat with Chris (our mentor) about this at that time. We agreed to do it as a first step in Apache. Btw, I'm not asking to short-circuited everything. The RAT compliant part of code is already done. The next steps could also be followed if we all work together. We can start discussing those steps soon.

This does not affect the fact you are using Oozie from a given commit (which we could tag without doing a release). I like the idea of doing a release soon, but I'd like to put togethe the bylaws and release process, so we can tune things up after the learnings of using them in a release. Thoughts? Thanks.
