+<pre>Hi folks,
+
+I have posted a [Nth] release candidate for the Apache OpenNLP [version] release and it is ready for testing.
+
+The distributables can be downloaded from:
+https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheopennlp-[REPO_NUM]/org/apache/opennlp/opennlp-distr/[VERSION]/
+
+The release was made from the Apache OpenNLP [VERSION] tag at:
+https://github.com/apache/opennlp/tree/opennlp-[VERSION]
+
+To use it in a maven build set the version for opennlp-tools or opennlp-uima to [VERSION] and add the following URL to your settings.xml file:
+https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapacheopennlp-[REPO_NUM]
+
+The release was made using the OpenNLP release process, documented on the website:
+https://opennlp.apache.org/release.html
+
+Please vote on releasing these packages as Apache OpenNLP [VERSION]. The vote is open for at least the next 72 hours.
+
+Only votes from OpenNLP PMC are binding, but everyone is welcome to check the release candidate and vote.
+The vote passes if at least three binding +1 votes are cast.
+
+[ ] +1 Release the packages as Apache OpenNLP [VERSION]
+[ ] -1 Do not release the packages because...
+
+Thanks!</pre>
