Admittedly, there is one day left for Juno RC3, but I can't help but point 
out several (27) missing "about.html" files. 

http://build.eclipse.org/juno/simrel/reporeports/reports/layoutCheck.txt

Plus, according to another report, 

http://build.eclipse.org/juno/simrel/reporeports/reports/licenseConsistency.html

there are 12 features missing "license" (EUA) files in features. 

The observant will notice that the two reports seem to say different 
things (the first saying none are missing license files in features, the 
latter saying 12 are missing). 

And they are different things. The first report checks the feature files 
themselves and determines if the file is there or not.
 
But, the second report is for the "license info" that is part of the 
repository content metadata, which arguably is more important, since it is 
the one that is presented to a users before they install something and the 
users asked "do you agree ... ?" before installing something. 

So, the license file can be contained in the feature itself (first report) 
but not "published" correctly to the p2 repository. You'll notice all the 
"missing licenses" say "%license" which is actually a good sign ... that 
probably means there's just something missing in the feature.properties 
file or something (but ... there are a couple of methods of "publishing" 
features ... so, you'll have to check.)

To give one compliment though, Almost everyone one has finally moved up to 
the 2011 license. Last year, there were several hundred that had not. 
Features with conforming (2011) license: 845
Features with old (2010) license: 21


 Thanks all,
