Yesterday, I started working my way through the LICENSE and NOTICE

finished lib and lib/endorsed. Starting on repository, now... Hope
to be done today.
Since we're embedding incubator projects, I think we should add a
Disclaimer file which explains our inclusion of incubator
projects. I plan on doing this. Will probably run this by
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
We're currently dependent on a number of incubator snapshots
(openejb, openjpa, activemq, yoko). Since the incubator release
process can be nearly as slow as ours ;-), we should look at ways
of prepping their projects for release. I scanned openejb a while
back (at David B's suggestion), but haven't looked at the fixes,
yet. Yoko has been trying to release an M1 (we're using M2-
SNAPSHOT) since early October. I have some minor issues with
Yoko's handling of LICENSE files which I hope to get them to
address...
We have a number of files which contain non-ASF copyright
statements (I think I have a list of files in the Jira that I
raised). It's not mandatory, but would be nice to get these moved
out of the source files and into our NOTICE file. However, this
requires action (or consent) by the copyright holder. I think I
can probably take care of the IBM copyrights. There are other
copyright holders, however. If someone could try to contact the
copyright holder(s) that would be great.
I decided to take the end of the week and weekend off from
releasing to get some actual coding done :) so I lost track of
this. How is it coming?
Coding? Sounds nice...
I just committed some changes to 1.2. I don't know of any more work
to be done for ther server portions of 1.2.
I'm going to update daytrader, when Matt gives the go-ahead. I think
I'm done w/ specs.
So, I'm not sure of anymore work to be done for the Geronimo portions
of a release. Oh the Disclaimer. IMO, since we are embedding
incubating projects, we should add a DISCLAIMER file to the root dir
of our source tree, a disclaimer file in the root dir of our binary
distributions, and add disclaimer text to our readme/release notes
documentation. How do others feel?
I'm working on updating trunk, now...
