Well … In general, in order to validate the release, you don’t even have to use it. The funny thing about Apache releases is that we don’t even require the stuff we ship to work. I guess we could wrap a bundle of random blah blah … the release verification should check If everything needed is in the package, if the headers are in place, no licensing problems arise etc.
To test it, you could download the archive and build it locally with a “mvn install”. Then you could create an empty presentation with: mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.training -DarchetypeArtifactId=content-archetype -DarchetypeVersion=1.2.0 And after that’s created you could build the presentation and check if it works. Alternatively, you could build and install the release version as above and then in the project update the content-parent-pom in some of this repos presentations and then see if it works.
