Dear PMC members, During the preparation of 1.4.7 I've found something interesting in connection with the LICENSE.txt file we've used to bound together with the SQOOP tar.gz files.
As I've seen since 1.4.0-incubating (before that I've got no information, as I've checked it from the location http://archive.apache.org/dist/sqoop/ ) we've never filled out the proper version number of the dependencies, but rather just keeping it in the following format: lib/xy-<version>.jar - where xy would be the name of the related dependency, but the "<version>" placeholder never filled with the proper version number. I've also found some discrepancy between the LICENSE.txt convention of the binary/source tar.gz files from version to version. A good example for that: - in case of 1.4.5 in the source jar only those jars are listed which are bound within the tar.gz - in case of 1.4.6 in the source jar all of the jars are listed which had been used for the binary version as well. My questions are the following: - Should we follow the existing process with 1.4.7, and not filling the exact version numbers, or should we ship with a fully LICENSE.txt? - Should we make a difference between the source and binary tar.gz files (like in case of 1.4.5) or should we follow the convention of the very last release (1.4.6)?
