I've completed some tests here, and this generally seems fine. With the
patch I uploaded to GitHub (http://gist.github.com/348454), I was able to
get a clean run with the whole itest suite passing. The patch is only for
the itest client, so I don't think its show stopping if it isn't committed,
but might be nice. The test script (one of David's from a previous release)
I used is here if anyone wants to use it:
http://people.apache.org/~jgallimore/build.xml<http://people.apache.org/%7Ejgallimore/build.xml>

I've run Rat over the source which looks ok to me, some xml/config files
without headers but nothing else. My Rat output is here:
http://people.apache.org/~jgallimore/rat-output.log<http://people.apache.org/%7Ejgallimore/rat-output.log>

I agree with Kevan and David J - I think we should have a signed source
archive as well. Happy to help with any release stuff I can if you decide it
needs re-doing, I realise its pretty time-consuming.
