ok, but any build that gets voted on to become a release must have those

Well, yes, but we only sign releases, not release candidates (which
are not releases per definition). Or to put it differently, signing
the artifacts is part of the release process, not of the released
artifacts for which the vote was put forward.

from what I've seen, it's more common than not to include a src
distribution.

Yeah, not to mention that I like downloading src distributions so that
I can attach source files to libraries that I use :-)

The apply-license.html page says a txt extension is permitted (big
warning: this page isn't in complete sync yet with
http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html):

    http://www.apache.org/dev/apply-license.html#license-file-name

In other words, a txt extension isn't necessary. :-)

Yeah, and I prefer having them - makes life easier for those non-*nix
users, where a missing file extension confuses the 'shell' :-)

cheers,
Tom
