Any plans for the first incubator release?
Hi!
what are the current plans/schedule for driving
the first Incubator release of DataFU?
Don't assume it has to have some extra functionality
compared to 1.2.0. It just needs to be the one that
follows the Apache Release process, but the bits
themselves can stay as closed to a previous release
as you guys might like.
The reason I'm asking this is two-fold: on one hand
getting the first release done is a very good way to
hit the ground running in the incubator. Also, we're
planning a Bigtop 0.8.0 release right now and having
DataFu there as an incubating ASF component rather
than a GitHub project would be really nice.
Thanks,
Roman.

I think at this point the above is a legacy wiki.

My understanding is that this is the one everybody
should be using from now on. At least for the incubating
projects I see no reason to go with the legacy wiki.
Thanks,
Roman.

I have a question about the wikis. I see some projects have wikis here:
http://wiki.apache.org/general/FrontPage
Other projects have wikis here:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/dashboard.action
What is the difference between these two?

Great thanks for the info! Yes I volunteer as RM ;)
I will start reading through the wiki. I'll also file a JIRA for a DataFu
wiki so I can create a How To Release page.

Great! First things first: somebody has to volunteer as a Release Manager (RM)
but it looks like you may just have done that ;-)
The other thing that I typically advise all incubating projects to do right away
is to start a HowToRelease wiki page capturing your experience for all the
RMs that will come after you. An excellent example of such a page to fork is:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/WHIRR/How+To+Release
If anything on the Whirr how-to-release instructions doesn't make sense -- ask
away or google via site:apache.org
Thanks,
Roman.

I would love to do a release of 1.3.0 as soon as possible. We've already
got several new features and bug fixes since migrating to the new Apache
repo. How can we get started on this?
