The missing NOTICE/LICENSE/DISCLAIMER files are not minor issues. It is ASF policy that the release contains the NOTICE/LICENSE file: http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#what-must-every-release-contain and Incubator policy that podling release contain the incubator disclaimer: http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html#notes-disclaimer Even if you had declared this vote passed, then I'm sure the subsequent IPMC vote on the release would have failed.
