In preparation for the release, I cleaned up the "How to Review a Release" wiki.( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/TAVERNADEV/2016-03+Apache+Taverna%3A+How+to+Review+a+Release+and+Vote ).
I'm wondering what changes in a source-only release. For example, is #10 ignored? Right now, the items to check are: 1) checksums and PGP signatures 2) commit ID 3) disclaimer and incubator- file names 4) top-level license and notice 5) source files have license headers 6) clear provenance (I'm still not sure how to check this, other than what's part of #4 and #5) 7) dependency licenses 8) no compiled binaries in release 9) successful build, including automated tests 10) source produces correct binaries. Are these all still relevant?
