Is that OK, or should I add this file back, putting the links to the maven-generated report in the RELEASE-NOTES.txt file? As I said above, I am happy to update and restore both this and STATUS.html, but I noticed that some other components don't have either one of these and maintaining duplicate files with the same info seems unecessary.
Also, what exactly is the purpose of README.html in http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/commons/foo and why are these files not in cvs? Some components have this file and some do not. It is referred to in section 11 of <http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/releases/release.html>. I was planning on creating one of these as per the instructions, but am wondering what purpose it serves, since users are not directed to this location for download.
Thanks in advance.

This is actually a precedent-setting commit. ;-)
Currently, the Commons charter states that a status file must exist, and, to date, I believe people have assumed that that file must be named either "STATUS.txt" or "STATUS.html". Since, as Phil says below, this status file is obsoleted by the combination of project.xml and changes.xml, at least for Mavenised projects, it might be worth being more explicit about this in the charter.
So, we could add a clause to the charter that says that "the status file" is either (project.xml + changes.xml) for a Mavenised project, or STATUS.html or STATUS.txt for non-Mavenised projects.
Comments?
