AFAIK, it depends on what the license says.

AIUI, there must be a source-only release.
This should have N&L files that relate to the source only.

A binary release may also be provided, in which case its N&L files
need to correspond with what is in the binary release.

For building from source, the dependencies need to be provided somehow.
Various options are possible:
- written instructions how to get the dependencies and where to put them
- separate script to download the dependencies
- build process automatically downloads the dependencies.

Depending on the licenses of 3rd party jars you may need to provide a
combination of methods.
There are some types of dependencies that can only be included if the
user makes a deliberate choice of downloading them, see the cited doc.

If all the dependencies are binary-distributable, it's probably also
OK to provide an archive containing just the dependencies.
This must have the relevant N&L files.

IMO, yes.

Once the issues have been resolved, yes.

No, RCs should be immutable. Otherwise how can one tell what one is voting on?
