Oh - and in case any potential mentors lurking out there would like to
know what ManifoldCF really does, and where it fits in in the broader
picture, you can look at the first chapter of ManifoldCF in Action for
free here: http://www.manning.com/wright/ .  This describes the
problem space pretty well, I think.

Long-term future plans involve extending ManifoldCF so it can scale in
a distributed fashion, which will require initial work to use
Zookeeper as the cross-process synchronization mechanism, as well as
building a distributed queue across multiple database instances.
Also, ManifoldCF has rather unique requirements as far as testing
infrastructure is concerned, which could arguably lead to other
spinoff Apache projects someday.

Please contact me if you're interested!

Thanks for the information.  I can offer one pot of gold (at end of
rainbow, of course), but that's all I've got. ;-)
Seriously, if anyone is interested in mentoring ManifoldCF, please let
me know.  If I have a name or two I'll throw it open for discussion on
the connectors-private list.

The process for finding new mentors is much the same as it was when
entering the incubator. Ask for volunteers, ask possible candidates,
offer large sums of money (oh, no, we're not supposed to do that...).

Assuming a possible mentor is a member of the Incubator PMC, then their
becoming a mentor for your project is as simple as informing the
Incubator PMC and updating the status page.

I think a problem might be that its so big so a little daunting to
review, I did start having a look but haven't enough time yet, I'll
try to find some time in the next few days. You should pester your
mentors to vote as thats one of their duties they accepted when
signing up to be a mentor.

Hi - just to clarify, we did not include the HTTPD extension in the
release, but it remains available in source control for backwards
compatibility.  Most people use the Active Directory Authority at the
moment.  But thank you for compiling it.

As for the RAT report, the skins question is known and a ticket is
open for that.  The other files are temporary files resulting from
your test run and I will open a ticket to exclude those from the
rat-source target.

We've still received zero binding evaluations from incubator for this
release, FWIW.

Since I'm only a podling committer and not an Incubator PMC member, I can't
offer a binding vote.  Nevertheless, I've performed some superficial QC on the
release candidate.

  * All signatures and sums check out, including for the binary artifacts.
  * "ant test" succeeds on the expanded src.tar.gz tarball on my OS X laptop.
  * The HTTPD extension builds after a Makefile hack (explained below).
  * "ant clean" properly cleans up after "ant test".
  * There's a problem with line endings in the src.tar.gz archive.

The HTTPD module, mod_authz_annotate, built successfully, but only after I
hacked the Makefile to use "apxs" instead of "apxs2".  Not a blocker, IMO, but
now you know. :)  Also, neither "make clean" nor "ant clean" cleans up all
build detritus -- these got left behind:

    mod_authz_annotate.la
    mod_authz_annotate.lo
    mod_authz_annotate.o
    mod_authz_annotate.slo

I was surprised to find that most of the text files in the src.tar.gz have
Windows line endings.  That's ugly, but not a blocker IMO.  It looks like they
have the proper settings in Subversion -- e.g. for README.txt, svn:eol-style
is "native" -- so it seems the problem arose because the tar.gz package was
prepared on a Windows box.  Maybe try preparing the tar.gz on something
unixish in the future.

Lastly, I ran "ant rat-sources", and though it declared "BUILD SUCCESSFUL",
RAT flagged 8 files:
  
    connectors/filesystem/test-output-postgresql/logging.ini
    connectors/filesystem/test-output-postgresql/manifoldcf.log
    connectors/filesystem/test-output-postgresql/properties.xml
    framework/test-output-postgresql/logging.ini
    framework/test-output-postgresql/manifoldcf.log
    framework/test-output-postgresql/properties.xml
    site/src/documentation/skins/common/xslt/html/split.xsl
    site/src/documentation/skins/lucene/note.txt

I'd suggest presenting a clean RAT report next time you call a vote on an RC to
make things easier on everybody.

Hope this helps,

Marvin Humphrey

How many binding votes from Incubator PMC members have you gotten so far?  Did
ManifoldCF's Mentors weigh in during the PPMC vote?

Hi again,

Just to be clear, the ManifoldCF podling needs incubator consideration
of the release candidate in order to do the release, and three binding
+1 votes.  Any chance that this might happen?
