Hm, I hate to spoil you here but according to a recent board discussion, some discussion on [EMAIL PROTECTED] and a completely botched release attempt in Velocity land:
You actually have to roll and sign a tarball/zip ball on which the vote happens. "Release-then-Vote" seems to be the only accepted way by the board these days; personally I do prefer "Vote-then-Release" myself but that seems to be the way it is. On the release itself I'm +1, on the procedure I prefer to abstain. :-) Best regards Henning On Tue, 2007-03-13 at 22:12 -0400, Vadim Gritsenko wrote: > Hi All, > > With 5 recent bug fixes [1], one *major* speed improvement for {m,n} closures > [2], with other various optimizations to compiler and runtime, and with > previous > release published sometime back in 2005 [3], now is the best, or at the very > least, really good time to to cut next, 1.5 release of the venerable Jakarta > Regexp package. > > Please try out current svn (r517970) version [4] and test for any regressions, > and vote for a release.
