Re: [VOTE] Release apache-manifoldcf-0.4-incubating, RC2
Thanks, Jukka. Waiting for the last IPMC vote has become the longest and most uncertain part of the ManifoldCF release process. Considering the amount of effort and good work that the committers put into each release, it's surely not too much to ask for someone here to have a look at it?

Re: [VOTE] Release apache-manifoldcf-0.4-incubating, RC2
Thanks for at least having a look at this! Even if you find the main release to be too big to look at, the three ManifoldCF plugins, which have separate release packages (and vote threads) are quite small with extremely limited dependencies. Maybe those would be easier to digest? ;-) Karl On Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 2:33 PM, Marvin Humphrey mar...@rectangular.com wrote: On Wed, Jan 18, 2012 at 02:11:49PM -0500, Karl Wright wrote: Waiting for the last IPMC vote has become the longest and most uncertain part of the ManifoldCF release process.

Mentor needed for ManifoldCF (Was: [VOTE] Release apache-manifoldcf-0.4-incubating, RC2)
Hi, On Wed, Jan 11, 2012 at 8:45 PM, Karl Wright daddy...@gmail.com wrote: With Jukka's vote, that's 2 down. We need one more... ... which highlights the fact that we need one more mentor for the project. Tommaso and I are currently more or less actively mentoring the project, while Gianugo doesn't seem to have enough spare cycles. Thus one extra pair of eyes would be great. The project itself is on a pretty good track. They've done a great work navigating some trickier licensing issues, and the community is following the Apache Way. The main trouble so far has been that the development efforts were for a long while carried almost single-handedly by Karl Wright, who's still by far the most active committer. But this diversity issue has recently been quickly solving itself with new committers becoming more active and new contributors showing up with patches. At this rate I believe the project should be ready to graduate within months. Extra mentor help would be appreciated not just in reviewing releases but also in helping make the transition to a more diverse community as smooth as possible (see the private list for a recent discussion on a related topic).
