Hi everyone, It looks like this release is ready to put to a vote.
Thanks for the feedback, Carsten. I've rectified the missing apache license headers and removed those two extraneous files. I've rolled another release candidate with a new version number. http://people.apache.org/~cmchen/dist/incubator/sanselan/0.96/ Apache RAT output for this release can be found here: http://people.apache.org/~cmchen/rat-bin-0.96.txt http://people.apache.org/~cmchen/rat-src-0.96.txt The intent is for this release to reside here: http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/sanselan/0.96/ Please take a look.
