I'd like to see a fix for Alma MARCXML publishing included (issue #330, PR #331).

[dr0i]

#332

[fsteeg]

We should also pick whats ready from #329 when we release (currently one: 11982de).

[blackwinter]

What are your plans for releasing a new version? We'd like to depend on a stable release for our Alma processing, if possible.

[dr0i]

Ack. Assiging myself.

Created the Projects->"Next release" (https://github.com/metafacture/metafacture-core/projects/2).
I added the mentioned PRs to the Projects Next release and moved them into the in progress column.
Note that there is no way to organize single commits in this way, so for them we have to remind them (I added this issue here as a reference (the only issue besides the PRs)). They have do be cherry-picked.
I propose to base the release on what we have now in the master plus some cherry-picking.
After this the artifacts are uploaded/deployed to oss.sonatype.org and release here on github.
This should be finished hopefully in the next week.

[blackwinter]

Great, thanks! Should we revisit #342 for inclusion in this release? Not a requirement on our part, though.

[dr0i]

@blackwinter you know, I am a fan of #342, so yeah!

[fsteeg]

I think we are ready to release the master as 5.2.0. I've moved all merged commits and PRs to done in https://github.com/metafacture/metafacture-core/projects/2. The rebased oersi branch (see #329) contains only things we don't want to release (OAI-PMH workaround, see #360, and publishing to GitHub packages, see #357).

[blackwinter]

Not to nag, but is the release still to be expected for this week?

[dr0i]

We try. It's not guaranteed, though.

[blackwinter]

I see that the new version has been released on GitHub, but it's not available on Maven Central or Sonatype Nexus yet.

[dr0i]

You said you would not nag ;)
I am on it, the release plugins via travis are not working anymore because travis has changed their way of uploading to sonatype. I found a solution yesterday avoiding travis. I will let you know when it's released, expect it to be done in a few hours.

[blackwinter]

You said you would not nag ;)

I'm doing my best ;)

I am on it,

Thank you!

[dr0i]

It's released! At least at see e.g. https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/metafacture/metamorph/5.2.0/. Propagation to other places may take some time.

[blackwinter]

Awesome, thanks! :)

Updated the Maintainer-Guidelines#making-a-release.

[dr0i]

An email to the Mailinglist should be written to announce the new release, pointing to the release's changes. Reopening.

[dr0i]

Email written, closing.
