which is one file, a zip.
Cool, that makes it official Apache practice.
Ironically Apache Maven is one of the ones I checked and they do offer
both zip and tgz source downloads :)
I think "source-release" is quite new. Most TLPs don't offer something
with that name - "src" is much more common.
Cassandra, Lucene, Hadoop don't offer zips at all.
Velocity puts everything (jar, source-release) in one directory and it's
not called source-release, and what I assume is the voted item has the
built jar inside it. log4j similarly.
etc etc :-)
Take your pick!
(That makes sense to me because then the critical vote release file is
exactly one file.)
Yes good point, fine by me.
