Hi Craig, I've made a public_html dir as you suggested:
http://people.apache.org/~cmchen/ > What I did was to create a dist directory that upon successful voting, gets > copied directly into the incubator/dist directory. So whatever is in dist > should exactly match incubator/dist. Your suggestion sounds good. This raises the question of how our releases should be organized inside dist? This seems to vary slightly by project. ie. jdo and wicket have a separate dir for each release: http://www.apache.org/dist/db/jdo/2.0/ http://www.apache.org/dist/wicket/1.4-m3/ Felix puts everything in one folder: http://www.apache.org/dist/felix/ Maven separates binary and source releases: http://www.apache.org/dist/maven/binaries/ http://www.apache.org/dist/maven/source/ Shall we follow the jdo appraoch? Presumably we will use: http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/sanselan So, I've moved the release and a copy of KEYS into: http://people.apache.org/~cmchen/dist/0.92-incubator/ With the intention that it would end up here: http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/sanselan/0.92-incubator/ Also, where should the maven-metadata.xml be placed? > You should run RAT on the distribution artifacts to make sure that the > LICENSE, NOTICE, etc. files are all ok. I don't see a binary release for RAT at: http://incubator.apache.org/rat/ http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/ Charles. > I wasn't able to access http://people.apache.org/~cmchen to look at your > distribution.
