Notice says: Copyright (c) 2005 - 2007 Should probably be 2009; also the product name is missing - should be on first line. Also, the POM says <inceptionYear>1999</inceptionYear>, so perhaps that should be 1999-2009 Release Notes says: Apache BSF 3 Beta2 Release Notes [should be Beta 3] "This 3.0-beta3 release is a maintenance release updating to support for the latest releases of various script language engines." That does not read well. It would be helpful if the top-level BUILDING file stated the minimum Java version required (appears to be 1.4.2, according to /distribution/src/bin/README). JUnit 3.8.2 would be a better choice for Java 1.4+ The jar files all seem to have NOTICE and LICENSE files, which is good, and the MANIFEST is good - except it would be nice to include the java source and target versions as well. Class ScriptEngineManager imports "sun.misc.Service" which means that the code is only likely to work on a Sun JVM. Build fails when using Java 1.4.2, because bsf-api\src\main\java\javax\script\SimpleScriptContext.java uses Integer.valueOf(int) which is Java 1.5+. Fails to download WS02 Rhino POM, so could not complete build. > Please review, if there are no issues I'll start a release vote in a few > days. > > Thanks! > > ...ant > > [1] http://apache.markmail.org/message/yuhgpligafl7uw6q > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: bsf-dev-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: bsf-dev-h...@jakarta.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: bsf-dev-unsubscr...@jakarta.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: bsf-dev-h...@jakarta.apache.org
