To facilitate releases, we should see > what can be optimized / cut. > Ideas: > - Drop (most) binary ZIP releases and only offer source, Maven and for the > Java SDK / Ruta the Eclipse update site: > -- Rationale: The binary ZIPs use separate LICENSE/NOTICE files which need to > be checked/maintained - and this cannot be easily done automatically > - Integrate RELEASE_NOTES.html into the README file > -- Rationale: one less file to update > - Have a README.md or README.asciidoc file instead of a plain text file > -- Rationale: looks better in GitHub > - Reduce instances of the version string in the README file > -- Rationale: less chance to miss a version string when preparing a release -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.7#820007)
