Well, the point is that this package.html's are from the OSGi alliance (licensed under ASL). We redistribute them but try not to modify them. We've been discussing adding a copyright but decided against it on the grounds of them being provided like this. - notes and comments (not requirements) - the public key does not seems to be available from the major keysigning networks (see http://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html if you haven't uploaded it yet) I'm going to upload the key. Thanks. good practice to produce both tar.gz and zip compressed artifacts. yes, i know that most major platforms can easily open either format but users associated tar.gz with *nix and zip with m$. producing both formats is good psychology. Right, we will look into it. release notes are an important form of guerilla advertising. the same content can be used in several different places: on the download page, on announcements, on grassroots media (eg freshmeat) and as plain text in the release. consider adding some next time. - robert We will. Due to this being our first release it wouldn't contain much this time around anyhow, but I agree, release notes are important. Thanks for pointing it out and for reviewing. regards, Karl -- Karl Pauls [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The "binaries" (i.e., jar files) contain a NOTICE that includes the DISCLAIMER. I agree that a separate DISCLAIMER is more clear but I think for this release we'll go with the current set-up. > please let me know whether you plan to cut another candidate or > whether i should review the one above Yes, please review the one above. > signing the releases is a requirement. having a well connected code > signing key is definitely good but not mandatory > > - robert We will make the asc and KEYS files available on the page mentioned above asap (i.e., a couple of hours). regards, Karl -- Karl Pauls [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Karl Pauls [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
