[VOTE] Release Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.3

Hi,

I have posted a candidate for the Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.3 release at

    http://people.apache.org/~jukka/jackrabbit/1.5.3/

See the RELEASE-NOTES.txt file (also included at the end of this
message) for details on release contents and latest changes. The
release candidate is a jar archive of the sources in
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jackrabbit/tags/1.5.3. The SHA1
checksum of the jackrabbit-1.5.3-src.jar release package is
a588b02e9ef3d99da5f891bbe9158b294d81c4af.

Please vote on releasing this package as Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.3. The
vote is open for the next 72 hours and passes if a majority of at
least three +1 Jackrabbit PMC votes are cast.

    [ ] +1 Release this package as Apache Jackrabbit 1.5.3
    [ ] -1 Do not release this package because...

With the source release I have also included pre-compiled binaries for
the main deployment packages (webapp, jca, standalone) as well as a
staged Maven repository containing pre-compiled versions of all the
components that have been changed since 1.5.3.

If this vote passes, I will make the source release and the deployment
packages available on the Jackrabbit download page and publish the
other binaries in the central Maven repository.

Here's my +1.

BR,

Jukka Zitting

Release Contents
----------------

This release consists of a single source archive (jackrabbit-1.5.3-src.jar)
that contains all the Apache Jackrabbit components. Use the following
commands (or the equivalent in your system) to build the release with
Maven 2 and Java 1.4 or higher:

    jar xf jackrabbit-1.5.3-src.jar

    mvn install

Note that the OCM components require Java 5 or higher, and are not included
in the build when using Java 1.4.

The source archive is accompanied by SHA1 and MD5 checksums and a PGP
signature that you can use to verify the authenticity of your download.
The public key used for the PGP signature can be found at
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jackrabbit/dist/KEYS.

Hi,

By the way, one of the tests failed first, but was successful the
second time I ran it:

testResidualNodes(org.apache.jackrabbit.ocm.manager.collectionconverter.
     AnnotationResidualNodesCollectionConverterImplTest)

Doh, I was too sure that we already got everything covered after the
1.5.1 issues. We really need to automate the header checks...

> i am not sure what this means for this vote/release.

A missing license header in a single test file isn't that serious. I
say we go forward with the release vote. If you think otherwise, feel
free to vote -1 and I'll post another release candidate with this
issue fixed.

the following source file is missing the ASF license header:

jackrabbit-core/src/test/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/core/state/TimeBomb.java

i am not sure what this means for this vote/release.

apart from this:
- signature OK
- checksums OK
- licence, notice, header, readme and release-notes files OK
- maven build OK

The vote passes as follows:

    +1 Claus Köll
    +1 Jukka Zitting
    +1 Stefan Guggisberg
    +1 Thomas Müller

Thanks for voting! I'll push the release out.

PS. Note that there was another deadlock case detected in relation to
the JCR-1979 fix. But since the original JCR-1979 bug is still fixed
it's good to push the 1.5.3 release out as it is. I'll be posting a
1.5.4 release candidate next week as soon as I've got a fix to the
follow-up issue JCR-2000.

BR,

Jukka Zitting
