Hi Emmanuel,
The year in the NOTICE file in the source distribution
(https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/directory/api/2.0.0.AM3/apache-ldap-api-2.0.0.AM3-src.zip)
is 2018, but the year in the NOTICE in the tag is 2019
(https://github.com/apache/directory-ldap-api/blob/2.0.0.AM3/NOTICE)?
How come there is a discrepancy, I would have expected the source dist
to match the tag exactly?
I must admit I never check the NOTICE file when I cut a release. This
is clearly something I need to add into the dev guide. My bad :/
Regarding this specific discrepancy, we have 2 NOTICE files:
- one at the project root (which is correct, as you updated it once
month ago - commit 9078db5edbd87336ad3668f254aafb78217a4b5b)
- one in distribution/src/main/release/NOTICE which has not been updated.
May be we should create a recurrent task to complete on every january
1st, updating those files ?
