Hi,

Thanks for driving this, Jincheng.

+1 (non-binding)

- Verified signatures and checksums.
- `pip install apache-flink-1.9.2.tar.gz` successfully.
- Start local pyflink shell via `pyflink-shell.sh local` and try the examples in the help message, run well and no exception.
- Try a word count example in IDE, run well and no exception.

In addition I'm willing to take these JIRAs. Could you assign them to me? :)

Best,
Wei

-1

- this is not a source release by definition, since a source release
must not contain binaries. This is a convenience binary, or possibly
even a distributed-channel appropriate version of our existing
convenience binary. A user downloading this package should know what
they are downloading.
We have never released a binary without a corresponding source release,
and don't really have established processes for this nor for
distribution channels other than maven. Technically speaking we don't
require a vote, but it is something that the PMC has to decide.

- the artifact name is not descriptive as it neither says that it is a
binary nor that it is a python/PyPi-specific release

- Development status classifier seems incorrect as it is set to "Planning"

Hi Chesnay,

Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts.

>> this is not a source release by definition, since a source release must
not contain binaries. This is a convenience binary, or possibly even a
distributed-channel appropriate version of our existing convenience binary.
A user downloading this package should know what they are downloading.

Yes, I agree it should be a binary release as we mentioned it in the
discussion thread [1].

>>We have never released a binary without a corresponding source release,
and don't really have established processes for this nor for distribution
channels other than maven.

This binary release is built from the 1.9.2 source release and the python
binary release package will be moved into the release folder[2] of 1.9.2 at
the final stage of this Python release.

>> Technically speaking we don't require a vote, but it is something that
the PMC has to decide.

Personally I think this is an official release because we have already
integrated the release process of PyFlink into the release of Flink[3].
Besides, Spark[4] and Beam[5] also considered the PyPI package as an
official release as they have also integrated it into the official release
process. As any official release requires PMC votes according to the
bylaws[6], I think releasing PyFlink 1.9.2 to PyPI requires PMC votes.
Furthermore, it provides an opportunity for the community to verify the
release package.

>> the artifact name is not descriptive as it neither says that it is a
binary nor that it is a python/PyPi-specific release

Regarding the artifact name, it should match the project name in the PyPI
and so I think it is OK.

>> Development status classifier seems incorrect as it is set to "Planning"

Regarding the development status classifier name, I think you’re right and
will change it to 'Development Status :: 5 - Production/Stable', and change
the  [author='Flink Developers'] to [author='Apache Software Foundation'],
in the new RC.

What’s your thought?

Best,
Jincheng

Hi all,

I hereby cancel this vote!
If there is no new negative feedback, I will prepare a new RC and bring up
