Overall looking pretty good.
Used the tar.gz binary distribution. The gpg signature checked out.
I did a from-scratch installation on Tomcat 6.0.29, MySQL 5.1.41, MySQL
Connector/J 5.1.13, Sun Java SE JDK 1.6.0_21. The installation went fine.
I haven't tested much on the installation.
I have noticed one probably significant issue already from some error
log messages. A number of the paths in the roller.properties inside
the roller-weblogger-business jar somehow got /home/dave hardcoded in
them instead of referencing ${user.home} or some other property. This
won't work for most people, and some of the functionality like search
indexing is probably failing as a result.
