Joseph Witt commented on NIFI-291:
----------------------------------
Sergio
Our current release model is quite simple and effective so I'd like to keep it
basic. I did try to incorporate the suggestion to avoid signing the hashes but
clearly didn't do something correctly. So going to defer messing with that for
now but thank you for providing the example config.
I will be sure to upload the convenience binaries to the dist/dev next time
though the current approach making sources.zip available through the staging
repo seems to work well so will stick with that for now.
Thanks for the feedback and we'll keep working on making this better over time.

>
> Key: NIFI-291
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-291
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Tools and Build
> Affects Versions: 0.0.1
> Reporter: Joseph Witt
> Assignee: Joseph Witt
> Fix For: 0.0.2
>
>
> Josh Elser:
> - Readme.txt should have License Header
> - nbactions.xml is odd in rat exclusions: perhaps we can comment why it is
> there (for netbeans users)
> Andrew Purtell:
> - Organizations is wrong in pom. It says
> <url>http://nifi.incubating.apache.org/</url>
> but should be:
> <url>http://nifi.incubator.apache.org/</url>
> Billie Rinaldi:
> The nar and war files deployed in the
> orgapachenifi-1022 repository seem to have default LICENSE files that don't
> have license info for their bundled dependencies, but they do all have
> DEPENDENCIES files listing this information. I haven't worked with these
> dependencies files before. Are they sufficient for communicating license
> information?
> Justin Mclean:
> Some suggestions:
> - Consider having separate licence and notice file for the binary release
> - The NOTICE file is a little odd in that while it mentions what licenses
> effect notice it
> doesn't list the software, but they are listed in the license file. Perhaps
> take a look at
> what other projects have done.
> As per [1] the source LICENSE should only mention what's bundled in the
> source bundle and
> the binary LICENSE should only mention what's bundled in the binary release.
> I think you have the content right (hence my +1) just that there's no need
> to mention the
> binary parts in the source release LICENSE. Having extra content in license
> is not as bad
> than having missing licences.
> I'd suggest (and it's only a suggestion) having two files (eg LICENSE.src and
> LICENSE.bin)
> in version control and put in right one into each bundle (and rename to
> LICENSE) as part of
> your release process. There are other approaches ie construct each LICENSE
> file from parts,
> but this seems the simplest way to me.
> Thanks,
> Justin

> Jan I:
> I am a bit confused about the mangling of license/notice files in respect
> of the source/binary releases.
> Can I please ask you to make a clear distinction between source and binary
> (which is not official ASF release) in the next release.
> Billie R:
> Beware that the license does not currently cover all of the dependencies
> bundled in the nars/wars. (As the license for the source package, it
> doesn't have to.) The one I noticed was nifi-kafka-nar, but there could be
> others.
