Re: [technology-pmc] Urgent: DLTK 5.1 review approval
Hi Technology PMC,

we've seen a commit to the Simultaneous Release Git repository from DLTK with a 5.1 version today [1].

I don't think that I need to mention that +3 day was yesterday, and that this contribution is *not* included in the aggregated p2 repository, nor in any of the EPP packages.

Apart from that I'm not aware of any rebuild requests from the project team, and I haven't seen any discussion on the mailing lists, but maybe this discussion got lost in the mailing list problems which we've seen today.

I just wanted to draw your attention to this.

Thanks,
Markus

+1 on the release materials.
Regrading the DLTK project health, I was hoping the Koneki team members would be interested in becoming committers on DLTK since they have expressed interest in forking it, but the last response from Simon didn't sound promising (I've attached it to refresh everyone's memory). That still seems like a promising future to keep DLTK from dying, but it would likely take some convincing.

Greetings PMC.

I need to ask you for approval of the release review materials on behalf of the DLTK project.

The review materials simply state that the release is focused on providing bug fixes. I reviewed the repository, and believe that this description is correct. AFAICT, there are no new method or API.

Given that the the release contains bug fixes only, they probably don't need to do a review at all, so the scant documentation is, IMHO, sufficient.

I appreciate your +1.

FWIW, this is at least the second time that I've had to request approval on behalf of DLTK. I am concerned about the continued viability of this project. They seem to be perennially under-resourced; given that several other simultaneous release participants depend on the project, this could end up being a big problem. We need to see what we can do to help them get their footing back.

Thanks,

Wayne
