Hi Greg, First of all, thank you Greg for taking the release manager role - I know it's time consuming especially in the beginning.
It's ok, but not nice to have the bin directory in the src dist duplicated in (/bin, /src/shell) - we can change that on the next release. I still think it's better to have the shell scripts not under /bin in the source tree. I don't like to have the javadocs in the src dist, but rather would like to see them in bin dist. In my view, the src dist is a copy of the trunk whereas the bin dist contains all the compiled/generated artifacts. The pgp signature (*.asc) doesn't need to be check-summed - for Nexus, I'm not sure if they are automatically created on uploading the signature files. Sorry for my late response - I've followed the discussions about the release, but was too busy/tired for a timely follow-up. - project structure / modularization (xmlbean_xpath.jar, xmlpublic.jar, xbeans.jar, ...): the source is full of modules, reflection calls and references to xbeans.jar - I feel the urge to clean up that (in my view) mess. Basically we should provide a xmlbeans.jar which contains everything and minimize reflections. - the KEYS file: I'd like to have one merged KEYS file for both projects and use svn externals to link to the one place. Andi.
