[VOTE] Release Apache Airflow 1.8.1 (incubating)
Hello Incubator PMC’ers,
The Apache Airflow community has voted and approved the proposal to release
Apache Airflow 1.8.1 (incubating) based on 1.8.1 Release Candidate 2. We
now kindly request the Incubator PMC members to review and vote on this
incubator release. If the vote is successful we will rename release
candidate 2 to final.
Airflow is a platform to programmatically author, schedule and monitor
workflows. Use airflow to author workflows as directed acyclic graphs
(DAGs) of tasks. The airflow scheduler executes your tasks on an array of
workers while following the specified dependencies. Rich command line
utilities make performing complex surgeries on DAGs a snap. The rich user
interface makes it easy to visualize pipelines running in production,
monitor progress, and troubleshoot issues when needed. When workflows are
defined as code, they become more maintainable, versionable, testable, and
collaborative.
The Apache Airflow-1.8.1-incubating release candidate is now available with
the following artifacts for a project vote:

+1 (binding)
* L&N look great (good job!)
* xsums/sigs are good (including your signing key in this message isn't
a bad idea)
* Could build from source (python setup.py build)

Jakob Homan already +1'd the release as part of the Airflow community vote.
Does that count towards the IPMC vote, or does he have to +1 it again?

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Airflow 1.8.1 (incubating)
Posted by "John D. Ament" <jo...@apache.org>.
+1, however there's a few issues with the LICENSE file:
- Would be good to list out the locations of each file (or path to a group
of files) (some have this, and others do not so its hard to follow)
- There's errant /* .. */ around each license declaration, which should be
removed.
- Missing license bodies for FooTable v2, jQuery Clock Plugin,
Likewise, your NOTICE has copyright 2011-2017, however Airflow hasn't been
incubating that long. If you like, you can give origination notices to the
original creators here to specify the original copyright dates.
I would challenge the podling to see if there's a way to simplify their
LICENSE by instead using npm or some other javascript packaging tool to
build a distribution, rather than shipping the dependencies in the source
release, makes it much easier to use.
As the podling matures, would be good to see information about the author
switch from an individual to a community (in setup.cfg, its already in
setup.py so may have been a miss)
It would be great to see a binary distribution in the next vote to see how
that may work, its not clear how to build it from this. Likewise, don't
hesitate to clean up your old release artifacts, I downloaded the wrong
artifact at first.

> Airflow is a platform to programmatically author, schedule and monitor
> workflows. Use airflow to author workflows as directed acyclic graphs
> (DAGs) of tasks. The airflow scheduler executes your tasks on an array of
> workers while following the specified dependencies. Rich command line
> utilities make performing complex surgeries on DAGs a snap. The rich user
> interface makes it easy to visualize pipelines running in production,
> monitor progress, and troubleshoot issues when needed. When workflows are
> defined as code, they become more maintainable, versionable, testable, and
> collaborative.
