Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache SpamAssassin 4.0.1 available
CNAME record to make sa-update work with new version number 4.0.2 that is in svn trunk has been added. sa-update for trunk should now work again. I have updated the checklist for release managers to have the update of the CNAME record be requested at the start of the 72 hour vote period for a full release so that sa-update will continue to work when the version number gets bumped up after the vote passes. Benny, re-reading your email, I see that is not the issue you are bringing up... The downloads directory includes the rules files snapshot as they were at the time of the release build, which can be used by people who don't want to or can't run sa-update after installation. Of course, people should be running sa-update or doing something equivalent to keep their rules up to date. The snapshot rules file is there for anyone who needs it at the time of installation if running sa-update then is not feasible.

Here are the files that will be released as Apache SpamAssassin 4.0.1 if there are at least three binding +1 votes and more +1 votes than -1 binding votes at the end of the 72 hour voting period, Friday, March 29, 2024 06:30am UTC. Note that the policy on voting for releases is not the same as for voting for code committing where a single binding -1 is a veto. Files are in https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/spamassassin/ There have been a few minor commits since the release of 4.0.1-rc1. We think those changes are safe, but definitely test these release files to be sure. As per https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html#release-approval please download and check the files on your platform(s) before voting +1 if you approve the release, or -1 and state a technical reason why these files are not ready for release. The current draft of the release announcement can be seen at https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/spamassassin/trunk/build/announcements/4.0.1.txt I vote +1 for release after checking on Ubuntu 22.04, macOS 13, and Windows 10. +1 to make release.
