-==========
+ Apache Creadur Rat 0.16.1
+ RELEASE NOTES
+
+The Apache Creadur Rat team is pleased to announce the release of Apache
Creadur Rat 0.16.1
+
+Apache Rat is a release audit tool. It improves accuracy and efficiency when
checking
+releases. It is heuristic in nature: making guesses about possible problems. It
+will produce false positives and cannot find every possible issue with a
release.
+Its reports require interpretation.
+
+In response to demands from project quality tool developers, Rat is available
as a
+library suitable for inclusion in tools. This POM describes that library.
+Note that binary compatibility is not guaranteed between 0.x releases.
+
+Apache Rat is developed by the Apache Creadur project, a language and build
+agnostic home for software distribution comprehension and audit tools.
+
As release 0.16 introduced breaking changes concerning the configurability of
the Maven plugin, these configuration options are reintroduced albeit as
deprecated elements. You need to adapt your configuration in contrast to
pre-0.16 settings: please consult our webpage for more details and examples.
Apart from dependency updates the release contains new features in
.gitignore-parser and reduces log spam of RAT.
The most important bugfix relates to performance issues (due to expensive
regex scanning) in combination with the Copyright-matcher and SPDX-detection.
