+1 (binding) I checked: - source distribution -- signature and checksum are good -- LICENSE and NOTICE are correct -- ASF header present in all expected files (including in NestProps :)) -- No binary/compiled file found in the source distribution - binary distribution -- signature and checksum are good -- LICENSE and NOTICE are correct -- ASF header present in all expected files
NB: a couple of potential cleanups/improvements exist in the binary distribution LICENSE, but nothing major or blocking.
