Well I won't say it's standard Apache practice in my experience. I've made probably over a dozen releases in about 3+ different Apache projects so far (Nutch, Tika, SIS) and I've always put out a plain-text version of CHANGES.txt and KEYS alongside the release artifacts. The advantage of doing so is that I don't have to download a 140 MB file before I can check what changes are part of the release. Also one of the things that Clutch checks in the Incubator is that there is a KEYS file in the distribution area, separate of the release artifacts. So, I would say it should be there. > You just need to > untar/unzip it. Thanks for the pointer. I'd like to see the source and binary tarballs separated. Strictly speaking, you really only need a source release, but it's up to you guys I think if you want to provide a binary one too. The advantage is that the source release is likely much smaller I'm guessing than the binary.
