[RELEASE] Apache Cordova 2.1.0
I have posted the 2.1.0 release on
http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/cordova/. Voting for this release was
a bit unorganized due to us not having a separate [DISCUSS] thread for
tagging. The consensus I was getting from that thread was that everyone was
for shipping this. Do people feel like we should have another vote thread
before publishing this to http://cordova.io and starting the graduation
process?

The standard process is to follow up on general@ only once the first
vote has passed.

Great!

Hey Jukka,
Quick question.
For part 4, I am assuming we start that second vote thread to
general@incubator.apache.org after the first vote has successfully passed?
Or can we start both threads at the same time?
I am about to start the vote thread for this mailing list.

Here's the sequence of steps that's needed. It's a bit rich in
ceremony, but that's required for the legal protections of the ASF to
kick in (i.e. the release becomes an act of the foundation instead of
an individual release manager).
1. You prepare the release candidate (the source package and
associated signatures, etc.). This we already have.
2. You start a VOTE thread on dev@. See [1] and [2] for good examples.
3. People review the release candidate and cast their votes
accordingly. See [3] and [4] for things to consider.
4. A majority of at least three +1 votes from the (P)PMC is needed for
the vote to pass.
4.1 In a normal TLP this would be sufficient, but in the Incubator an
extra vote round is needed, see [5].
4.2 To do this, start a vote on general@incubator.apache.org. See [6]
for a good recent example.
4.3 A majority of at least three +1 votes from the IPMC are needed for
the vote to pass.
5. You make the approved release available in under /dist and update
the project website to point to the new release
6. You announce the release to the world!

Cool. Thanks for the info. I also placed them on
http://people.apache.org/~steven/ incase we needed to remove them.

Sorry, that's not how it works. Apologies for not being more proactive
with this. :-( I pulled the release artifacts from that location and
placed them under ~jukka/cordova for now.
As I mentioned in the earlier VOTE thread, you need to have the source
archives available for review already when the vote is started
(otherwise there's nothing to vote on), not just create them after
there's consensus to release.
I'll follow up with the proper release process in a moment, for now I
just wanted to quickly let you know that I pulled the release down.
