Thanks for the feed back Jorn.
I'll rollback RC1 and will create a RC2 after the NOTICE and LICENSE updates.

Yes, lets make a RC2 and get everything in a good shape. You need to vote
also on incubator general before you can release and the people there usually
do not like such things at all.

The problem with general is that it often takes a bit until people vote there,
and if there is a problem you have to make a new RC which first needs to be
voted through here, and then again on general.

Please cancel the vote here.

Did you check if the UMLS Metathesaurus license is compatible with the AL?
Would it be acceptable if we revisit this one after the 3.0 release?  It is 
currently being tracked here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CTAKES-53
It may take some time/effort to get confirmation from the NLM and move around 
the resources (if required).



No, we can only include 3rd party work which falls withing category a or b licenses. If that is not the
case it cannot be included.

Have a look here:
http://www.apache.org/legal/3party.html#criteriaandcategories

Well, the UMLS license is probably not listed there, in that case the guide says:

" ... Licenses not appearing on these lists must be explicitly approved by the ASF Legal Affairs officer prior to distribution. License approval requests may be sent to the legal-discuss mailing list."

Another thing I noticed is that you uploaded the distribution files (src and bin package) to Nexus, usually people upload them to people.apache.org, because they are not distributed via Nexus.

The big distribution files should be distributed via Apaches distribution infrastructure:
