Hi, A bit of topic but concerned about "legal" and release. We do "release" having https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Netbeans/job/netbeans-license/ unstable for month. We have contrib folder that we put apart for release but that may contains incompatible licence. Do we need to keep thoose in the main repo just for excluding them for release ? (we may create another repo). It's adding complexity for complexity.
And if RAT fail I think a PR shouldn't use CPU, it should fail fast IMHO. It may save time. If we exclude too much file on RAT we should configure it better.

I was acting on my memories of release 10.0. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-1719 I do not think that the release process shall be hanged upon my +0, it's not a -1 after all (as the jars does not contain compiled code). Honestly, I like the idea presented by Matthias in https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/3162 as a way forward in 12.6 On 9/11/21 11:10 AM, Neil C Smith wrote: > On Sat, 11 Sept 2021 at 18:58, Matthias Bläsing > <[email protected]> wrote: >> 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. > +1, but don't be irritated! :-) > > Part of the problem is that we haven't updated our release emails to > cover them, or the branding folders with jar names that have also > caused similar concerns.
