We are trying to get there you know.
If at any point you want to help, just let me know.
I wasn't trying to say that you weren't working on it, just trying to

Capital R. A Release
Capital R. A Release build is a specific notion within the ASF. Not
all
builds are created equal, and no one was talking about distribution from
CVS

Would you mind to explain me what the specific notion means?

Thanks, understood. In that case, I'd hold my argument, that the incubated

Jochen,
A project is accepted into the Incubator on the hopes that it WILL become an
ASF project. However, it still needs to meet certain critera (the exit
criteria). Those criteria should include having a healthy Community, which
helps to ensure its long term survival; and having all legal

Ted,
if there is a version that has been finished / super tested, etc,
it seems a little sily not to make it stable.
Stable, yes. Labeled as an ASF Release, no. In my view.
