I checked:

- DISCLAIMER exists
- NOTICE looks good
- LICENSE looks good (see notes below)
- signature is valid
- Apache license headers in source files (see notes below)

NOTES:

- In the LICENSE file, you don’t need to include the entire content of the 
Mozilla Public License, the following text should suffice:

  This Source Code Form is subject to the terms of the Mozilla Public
  License, v. 2.0. If a copy of the MPL was not distributed with this
  file, You can obtain one at http://mozilla.org/MPL/2.0/.

- Since the Elastic Search code is ASLv2 licensed, you don’t need to have that 
entry in the LICENSE file
- “slapd.seed” does not have an Apache license header, but I’m not familiar 
with the file format and don’t know if it supports comments.
- “.travis.yml” and the “.*” files under “metron-ui” are missing Apache license 
headers
- KEYS doesn’t need to be part of the source distribution, but that doesn’t 
seem like a big deal
- COPYING under ./bro-plugin-kafka is just a copy of the Apache license and can 
probably be deleted.
- The source archive is named "apache-metron-0.1BETA-RC6-incubating.tar.gz” but 
expands to "incubator-metron-Metron_0.1BETA_rc6” (probably not a big deal)

I don’t think any of the above issues will/should block the release. Incubator 
projects have some leeway in terms of releasing with minor licensing issues. A 
lot of times, simply having a JIRA ticket to address such issues in the next 
release will suffice and allow the release to go forward.

+1 (binding)
