This presentation will explore technical, procedural, legal and cultural aspects of releasing Apache software; the distinction between "releasing" and "distributing"; the relationship between Apache's source releases and binary artifacts; maturing consensus as to what liberties may be taken with "incubating" releases; how our release process is holding up as the software world evolves; and how codifying the release process helps to fortify the Apache brand.
Marvin Humphrey is a former V.P. of the Apache Incubator and a founder of Apache Lucy. He is employed as a Software Engineer by Eventful, and has given presentations at OSCON, ApacheCon and elsewhere.
