HTML/XML should have, um... not sure... Programs that process these files for display shouldn't care about the line-endings. Of course, if you open one of them up in an editor, you might not get what you would expect, but then, why would you be doing that?  :-) But if they are going to be different (and I'm not saying they should be) we certainly have to label the files clearly on the download page, like:   db-derby-10.1.2.0.zip (Windows CRLF line terminators)   db-derby-10.1.2.0.tar.gz (Unix LF line terminators) Agreed. But as for fixing up the line feeds on the text files: - should we? It looks like that would match up with the previous release, since I built the tars on Linux and the zips on Windows. But, - is it worth it, for a small number of text files? Maybe, since we're talking about LICENSE, NOTICE, etc. being readable on any platform regardless of the build platform. andrew
