ok, the artifact name issue is resolved i think.
i created a release tag:
etch/releases/release-1.1.0-rc1
artifacts posted here:
http://people.apache.org/~sccomer/etch-1.1.0-rc1/
what's left?
run rat.
check out the notices and readme and release notes and stuff.
download and test the artifacts.
1. People in the Incubator will complain if the tag is not containing
the 'incubating' word, so copy the one you have into a new name, and
kill the old tag.
nod.
2. Rat reports a lot of "????", which shows at the top as "unapproved
licenses". For all files that supports comments, the Apache standard
header should be used. Need to fix this.
yes. i don't see any way to customize (despite words that say you can,
must be in the source code
that i can do that) rat's list of file types that matter. *.vcproj and
readme style text files would seem
to fall into the category of files that don't matter. i'm working on the
complaints today to resolve the
legitimate issues.
Since you don't distribute any of the "Dependencies", I would
recommend that you rename it to "System Requirements". Apache allows
system requirements of stuff with just about any license, whereas
redistributed dependencies must be of certain kinds. My guess is that
you codebase may actually "dependOn" velocity, so perhaps a bit
surprise to see it not included in the distro. JavaCC is another one
that should perhaps be redistributed (no problem, since it is BSD
license) to simplify for users and hence stay as a "Dependency".
not sure what you're saying here. we do distribute velocity in our
binary image. because it is
needed at runtime by the compiler. we have no other runtime
dependencies. the rest (javacc,
junit, apr, ant, etc.) are build dependencies. are you suggesting we
should put those into our
source tree as well? (personally, i'd like that, as the current scheme
has a pretty high barrier
to getting started and lots of twitchy settings to keep it working).
