Hi,

I'm mildly irritated, that trivial JARs are considered a problem for
the 12.5 release, while  a huge pile of files is completely excluded
from RAT scanning.

I had a closer look at the JARs come down to this:

----------------------------------------------------------------
./java/maven/test/unit/data/mavenmock/3.3.1/lib/fake331.jar
./java/maven/test/unit/data/mavenmock/3.0.5/lib/fake305.jar
./java/maven/test/unit/data/mavenmock/4.0.0/lib/fake400.jar
./java/maven/test/unit/data/mavenmock/2.2/lib/fake221.jar

- trivial pom.properties + MANIFEST.MF (both text files)

----------------------------------------------------------------
./java/maven/test/unit/data/mavenmock/source.jar

- trivial pom.properties + pom.xml + MANIFEST.MF (all text files)

----------------------------------------------------------------
./platform/autoupdate.services/test/unit/src/org/netbeans/api/autoupdat
e/data/empty.jar

- trivial MANIFEST.MF

----------------------------------------------------------------
./enterprise/payara.common/test/unit/data/nottaDir-4_1_2.jar
./enterprise/payara.common/test/unit/data/subdir/nottaDir-5.0.jar
./enterprise/glassfish.common/test/unit/data/nottaDir-4_1_2.jar
./enterprise/glassfish.common/test/unit/data/subdir/nottaDir-5.0.jar

- one byte files
----------------------------------------------------------------

There is IMHO _nothing_ in this, that warrants doubts on the
cleanliness of the release.

I'll see if I can remove them all all, but for 12.5 IMHO this is out of
scope and also unnessary.

Greetings

Matthias, putting away the zip tool for now
