Some comments: 1) .zip for the artifacts is a bit unusual (not a real problem though), why not .tar.gz?
2) signing looks good 3) why are you shipping jars in the src artifact? is this really necessary? 4) your src license includes licenses for files not actually in the artifact. You'll need separate licenses for src and bin, where src license includes only for those in the artifact. 5) the jars in the bin seem ok, however there are some I'm not familiar with. Have you checked that all included jars are cat A? junit for example is cddl which is cat b and best left out. I'd leave out all the test specific jars. 6) the notice file for the bin is the same as the NOTICE file for the src artifact. See the Apache license - you need to ensure that the binary artifact includes all the notices of included binaries. In some cases this is included in the jar file of the included binary itself, but you need to check this. 7) I quickly ran through the checklist http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html#check-list and everything seemed fine except for the noted items.
