OK, sorry for bringing this so long but this is my first time I am making a release and as you see I am not so confident.
I have uploaded the new archives here: http://people.apache.org/dist/jakarta/cactus/1.8.0/ with the following changes: 0) Now everything is built with JDK 1.4 1) The L&N files are included. 2) The MANIFEST.MF is proper (according to me). 3) I have removed the duplicate maven-release-plugin declaration, which used to bring the line: <tagBase>file:////home/peter/tags/</tagBase> I have made the archives from the trunk. I have no RC tag. If the archives are OK, I will cast a vote upon them and if the vote succeeds I will copy the trunk in a tag. The only issue I see now is that we have the DEPENDENCIES file in the META-INF, but since it is not a blocking issue I will leave as it is. (Actually I couldn't find anywhere in the web how to remove this file). Please can you have a look over the artifacts and in case there are any problems, I will be glad to work on fixing them. Thanks a lot. P.S I have the following in my ~/.subversion/config file: *.java = svn:eol-style=native but I don't seem to set the eol-style correctly. Can you tell me where am I wrong? Also I have added the RAT plugin in the master pom so that we can execute the rat plugin. I exclude the scratchpad/, descriptors/ and ANNOUNCEMENT.txt and I don't see any other file with a missing header....
