I am +1. I added MCP checks to my previous checklist (and they pass). Haven't tested Modeler on Windows.
Noticed the Mac .dmg doesn't have the background image and our custom layout. The contents of the .dmg are correct though, so this is not a blocker either. (I've seen my own builds losing the layout on rare occasions; never got to the bottom of it though). One of the unit tests was missing the Apache header (my fault, I fixed that already on the "past-M2" branch). I don't think this disqualifies the release. This is an internal unit test, and is not expected to be referenced or embedded by the end users in their code. Also the new .md files don't have Apache headers, which I think is totally ok. Anyone has a different opinion on this?
