Incubator PMC Vote
Once the community vote has been successfully completed and results have been sent to the community, a round of voting by the Incubator PMC is required. The Incubator PMC (or IPMC) oversees all Apache projects in Incubating state. This vote is not needed once the project reaches Top Level status (TLP status).
The release manager must send out an email (link to an example is below) to the general@incubator.apache.org mailing list calling for the IPMC vote. A period of 3 business days is the usual time window for the vote.
Example email to the Incubator PMC calling for their vote on the release candidate.
In addition to the above example email, it is also recommended to include this link to the licensing guidance from the ASF when calling an IPMC vote, because it describes the guidance from the ASF regarding MADlib's particular licensing history. This is to make it easier for IPMC members who are reviewing the release and may not be familiar with MADlib's license history and transition to the ASF.
After the IPMC voting has been successfully completed, the release manager must send an email to general@incubator.apache.org with the results of the vote. At this point the release candidate is ready to become GA.
