# Verify the build works

Be mindful of the pre-requisites required for the C++ version of MiNiFi, 
enumerated in the README

cd minifi-0.0.1-source
make

# Verify the contents contain a good README, NOTICE, and LICENSE.

# Verify the git commit ID is correct

# Verify the RC was branched off the correct git commit ID

# Look at the resulting convenience assembly found in assemblies

# Make sure the README, NOTICE, and LICENSE are present and correct

# Run the resulting convenience binary and make sure it works as expected

Be mindful of caveats for this initial release, listed in the README.

For some additional assistance, a package with configuration files for both a 
MiNiFI instance and a NiFi instance available at 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MINIFI/Releasing+MiNiFi#ReleasingMiNiFi-SampleNiFiandMiNiFiConfigurationtotransmitdatafromMiNiFitoNiFiviaSitetoSite

Alternatively, the same approach you may have become accustomed to for the Java 
version can also be applied for the initial processors included in the C++ 
release.

# Send a response to the vote thread indicating a +1, 0, -1 based on your 
findings.

Thank you for your time and effort to validate the release!
