Hi all, I just read through the meeting log, and have a couple of follow up items: 1 - RAT and Whisker for Licensing - No, they are not perfect. However, they are really designed to help maintain a steady state for the project. I was asking for help manually auditing the file tree, so that we can then depend on those tools to audit the source (RAT) and maintain the LICENSE and NOTICE files (Whisker). 2 - RC binary hosting - ASF has a place for hosting the RC builds: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/cloudstack . We need to use the mirrors for our downloads though. 3 - RC binary contents - IMO, we should only include the Apache compatible source / deps in the binary distribution. Last item: Unless there is an objection, I'm going to attempt to follow the ASF release process for JUST the source code today. We can add in the binary distributions on Thursday (once building is back on track). This will allow us to test the ASF mirroring process. -chip
