It’s more than odd, it’s not in line with policy. You must point to the primary source of distribution at Apache, Maven and Github can be mentioned as secondary distribution points but should not take prominence over the Apache links. Github releases are misleading as anything that is tagged GitHub assumes is a release even though (at that point) it will not have not been voted on. For example see [2] Please remove the link to GitHub release form the REAME. > * What is the policy for pointing users at Stackoverflow and Quora?

I think the REAMDE is OK here. > * Why do the NOTICE files make note of commons-lang including something > from the Spring Framework?

RE the README this is also still an issue with the "Apache RocketMQ Community” section. The community is not at https://github.com/rocketmq it is here at Apache!
