Thanks, Rob Checking: + does everything work on Linux? + does everything work on MS Windows? + does everything work on OS X? + are the GPG signatures fine? + are the checksums correct? + is there a source archive? + can the source archive really be built? (NB This requires a "mvn install" first time) + is there a correct LICENSE and NOTICE file in each artifact (both source and binary artifacts)? + does the NOTICE file contain all necessary attributions? + have any licenses of dependencies changed due to upgrades? if so have LICENSE and NOTICE been upgraded appropriately? + does the tag/commit in the SCM contain reproducible sources?
