My understanding was that the "blocker" portion of this issue related to the changing of the headers, which has been done. Adding the copyright notice to the NOTICE files I have missed but that is trivial and will be done in the next few minutes.
However, part of this issue deals with running RAT against the source tree. In it's current state, RAT produces a huge amount of output (attached as a ZIP file to the JIRA). I don't think we should hold back the release for this, but perhaps I'm in the minority. If someone would like to review the output, that would be helpful.

We are required to comply with ASF policy, so yes, it does block a release. Just a quick look says the NOTICE files haven't been updated yet. (They should contain a copyright notice with the years, since that was removed from the license headers.) Example: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/myfaces/core/trunk/impl/src/main/resources/NOTICE.txt -- Wendy
