Jochen Wiedmann commented on RAT-379: ------------------------------------- Okay, the point seems to be to copy the file RELEASE_NOTES.txt from the parent project to the created jar files as META-INF/RELEASE_NOTES.txt. In other words, we can remove those snippets, if we achieve that point in a different manner. Suggestion: # In apache-rat-core, use a small Ant, or Groovy script to copy that file from the parent project as part of the "generate-resources" phase. # In apache-rat-plugin, apache-rat-tasks, and apache-rat-tools, use the maven-dependency-plugin to import the copied file from apache-rat-core. (They all have a dependency on that, anyways.) Possible drawback: apache-rat-core might loose the ability to be buildable standalone, because it now requires the presence of ../RELEASE_NOTES.txt. To me, that's alright, I am cloning the whole project, not just the core. But others might have different needs.
